Lawsons Menzies auction this Sunday
The Kensington fine interiors auction
Last night I went to a special preview screening of the Lawsons auction taking place at 12pm this Sunday at 12 Todman Ave, Kensington. It’s not an el-cheapo auction but there are some top finds here.
My picks? The Tim Storrier piece on the wall above and the zebra skin rug (I know, I know, but he’s long dead… better to be appreciated, otherwise that would be a complete waste) as well as the Paul Smith-esque striped parlour chairs, a rather fetching gilt bedhead that could do with a re-upholster, and any of the original vintage French advertising posters, amongst others.
