English Furniture and Works of Art
Featuring renowned makers such as William Kent, Thomas Chippendale and Matthew Boulton, Christie’s offers a wide range of Chinese Export wares, English furniture and works of art from various design periods and regions, including Ireland and Scotland.
In addition to our regular auctions — The Exceptional Sale and The Collector — we showcase single-owner collections and themed auctions, such as the 2018 sale celebrating the tercentenary of Thomas Chippendale’s birth. Christie’s also holds auctions dedicated to English country homes — large and small — which frequently provide rich resources for collectors, dealers and decorators seeking classic English styles.
Christie’s has achieved record prices for English furniture, including the Anglesey desk (1993), the Dundas armchairs (2008) and the Kenure Cabinet (2008), demonstrating our unmatched expertise and longstanding relationships with both sellers and buyers.
