Lots 6-8, Fine Interiors, 6 December
Sitting in a sought-after location in the historic Suffolk town of Clare, this Grade II listed country cottage has been thoughtfully decorated over the past few years. The owner has awarded more than a gentle nod to the art of classical antiquity, as the pediments, plaster busts, and acanthus motifs show, however, there are touches throughout the house – such as the sitting room’s deep blue Farrow & Ball walls and a mustard velvet armchair – that feel familiarly modern.
Lots 11-12, Fine Interiors, 6 December
Lots 24-26, Fine Interiors, 6 December
Progressing through the house, the decor deviates slightly from purely classical, with an injection of warm patina provided by a selection of 18th and 19th century antiques, and all together create a stylish and comfortable retreat that seamlessly blends the past and present.
Lots 31 & 32, Fine Interiors, 6 December
