Based in the beautiful county of Sussex, England, we offer a curated collection of antiques and decorative pieces that blend timeless craftsmanship with modern style.
What began over twenty years ago as a passion for collecting objects rich in history and character has grown into a refined selection of pieces chosen for their quality, beauty, individuality and yes a bit of quirkiness. Each item tells its own story, from elegant furnishings and original artworks to unique curios that add depth and distinction to contemporary interiors.
We believe true luxury lies in authenticity and craftsmanship. Every piece in the collection is thoughtfully sourced to bring heritage, artistry, and a sense of understated sophistication into today’s living spaces.

Description
Wonderful pair of mid 19th C. naive watercolour portraits, of what we can assume is a married couple.
Older couple in sitting position wearing period clothing. Gentelman pointing at the music notes that are resting on his lap and the lady is holding handkerchief. Both characters are naively painted but still showing good detail and full of charm. Portraits are painted on paper with ink and watercolor, mounted in birds eye frames.
On the right side of the ladys portrait, name and date are vizable Lewis July /50 which most likely stands for 1850.
Two portraits are in similar condition, showing light imperfections with fading. Frames are showing wear and tear with imperfections.
Portraits are approx: 15.5cm by 11cm
Matching frames - 23cm by 20.5cm
