R. Harvey & Co, the Witney
antique dealers, from 4th - 12th November 2017.
The exhibition will highlight the incredible range of designs, colours, forms and uses in English furniture dating from 1680 to 1850. A full colour catalogue will
accompany the exhibition.
As the history of English furniture reveals, so many different woods, sourced from all over the
world, were used by cabinetmakers, craftsmen and artisan joiners to produce the finest furniture in
England’s history. Today, fine and practical pieces are sought after, admired and in daily use in so
many homes. Now antique furniture is back in vogue, desirable not just for its many fine, practical
and decorative qualities and its longevity, but also its new affordability.
As David explains: ‘This is a very exciting time to be an antiques dealer. The leading Interior Design
magazines are saying that minimalism is now dead and so all those who said this often bleak and
reductionist way of living would kill the antiques trade are finding the resilience of antiques is strong.
Many commentators are at last saying what many have known for the past year - good antique
furniture is back in demand and enjoying a resurgence. Our exhibition will show just how many
wonderful pieces in such a wide range of styles, designs and colour are now available.’
