    Pair of late 19th century French bleached cabinets

    This pair of large late 19th century French bleached cabinets are at the stand of Christopher Hall Antiques at the winter edition of the Decorative Fair at Battersea Park in London from today until January 25. With around 130 exhibitors the fair offers a variety of stock from the 1700’s to 1979 and with works of art from antiquity to the present day. The foyer display at the entrance, created by the fair organisers, will look at the 1910’s to the early 1920’s when forms of modernism and early Art Deco mingle with the aesthetic and Art Nouveau of the fin de siécle era. Upstairs on the mezzanine LARTA, London’s annual antique rug and textile art fair, features specialist dealers in carpets, rugs, textiles and associated works of art from cultures with a strong tradition of woven art.
