An exciting new development for the department is the introduction of the Fine Interiors Journal, a companion guide offering an overview of the sale complete with links directly to the relevant sections of the online catalogue.
Despite all the challenges and uncertainties of 2020, we have seen new registrations to our SwordersLive bidding platform rocket, and with the introduction of The Journal, we hope to appeal to this adjusted buying behaviour.
