This incredible single owner collection of treen from a Peterborough deceased estate includes some of the rarest pieces our specialists have ever seen. To see such a variety of items, some very obscure is a delight, and we look forward to bringing the collection for auction for each piece to find new loving homes.

Provenance for a number of the items within this auction is also The Estate of Cressy Hall, Lincolnshire.This beautiful Georgian family home is famed for its magnificent topiary, and has been featured in Country Life Magazine among other publications and television programs https://www.countrylife.co.uk/gardens/country-gardens-and-gardening-tips/cressy-hall-topiary-240111.
