Furniture & Rugs 

Furniture from 17th century to the 19th century 

Our auctioneer Jessica is a great lover of period furniture, having begun her career working as a Furniture & Art Restorer, and so if you are wanting to invest in a beautiful piece, she is the person to talk to! From Carlton House desks to early 17th century oak coffers, Stamford Auction Rooms will not fail to tempt you into buying a period piece. 

 

We prefer not to use the term ‘brown furniture’ which has been used to describe a certain group of furniture that is not as desirable as it once was. We like to think that all furniture can be upcycled, re-used and enjoyed again, and we are proud that our industry is ‘green’ – we are big supporters of the Antiques are Green campaign, a message which we like to share, so whatever you are looking for or wishing to sell, we are sure we can provide the help you require. 

 

 

Mid-Century Furniture 

Interest has increased in Ercol and Mid-Century Danish furniture over the years, and we have not failed in delivering some of the most desirable makers to the market, with our latest examples by Charles Eames Lounge Chair for Herman Miller c.1970s making  a £3,600 hammer price, a Marcel Breuer Wassily / B3 chair (1925-1927) reaching £650, two Harry Bertoia Diamond Chairs making £400 each, and a fabulous set of six Hans Brattrud (1933-2017) 'Scandia' dining chairs, circa 1960, manufactured by Hove Mobler which realised £2,800. 

  

Arts & Crafts Furniture 

We are well known for our top prices realised for the furniture made by the revered Robert Thompson ‘Mouseman’, as well as his followers; Foxman & Gnomeman which have consistently featured in our auctions following a huge hammer price for a rare and early Mouseman octagonal top dining table, reaching an incredible £17,500, and has been shipped all the way across the world to one of our clients in Cape Town.
