A UNIQUE AND INSPIRING COLLECTION OF ANTIQUES AND DESIGN FROM A WIDE RANGE OF DEALERS
The Decorative Fair has, over its 35 years, built a powerful reputation amongst the decorating trade and private buyers. Some 130 specialist dealers showcase every discipline of antiques, fine and decorative art and 20th century design, dating from the 1700s to the 1970s at a wide range of price points. Our exhibitors are resourceful in finding unique and special items to create and finish an interior scheme or garden room. Many exhibitors present room-sets, providing further inspiration on how to imaginatively display items.
The Winter Fair is the perfect source for interior sparkle to brighten up your home, from modernist or period lighting and mirrors, to cheerful contemporary paintings and colourful works of art such as studio glass, crystal, and silverware. Or treat yourself to a new piece of jewellery or a vintage watch. Winter is also when The London Antique Rug & Textile Art Fair (LARTA) takes place up on our mezzanine, with 15 specialist dealers in rugs and carpets, tribal weavings, and a huge variety of antique textiles for decorating with, and collecting. If you are searching for a rug, or original textiles for the wall such as embroidered panels or tapestries, you’ll find a great range to choose from.
Packing, delivery and export services are available on site. The restaurant on the Mezzanine, provides all-day refreshment, and we offer a courtesy coach service between Sloane Square and the Fair. We’re a dog-friendly event, although we do require dogs to be well-behaved and kept on a lead at all times when inside the venue.
