Art Antiques London 2015

Every June, the blooming allées of London’s Kensington Gardens provide the perfect backdrop to Art Antiques London, a premier international fair for antique furniture, fine art, silver and jewelry. Much like the myriad objects on display, the venue is steeped in history of its own: Located across from the Royal Albert Hall, it occupies the venerated site of the Great Exhibition of 1851, an Industrial Revolution-era exposition for culture and industry that was attended by such celebrated figures as Charles Darwin, Charlotte Brontë and Charles Dickens. Art Antiques London is the first fair to erect a pavilion on this hallowed ground since 1851’s cast-iron and glass “Crystal Palace,” whose courageous, 990,000 square-foot design was based on royal greenhouses.
Now in its sixth annual edition, Art Antiques London unites dozens of international dealers from around the world, with pronounced participation from the U.K.’s finest. This year, British art-fair tycoons Brian and Anna Haughton have organized an event that also boasts academic credentials, conceiving a series of lectures appropriate for museum curators and seasoned connoisseurs as well as aspiring collectors.
In anticipation of the event, our editors have cast an eye over items on offer from participating 1stdibs galleries. Among the treasures featured below are stunning examples of Staffordshire pottery, Hester Bateman silver, collectible manuscripts and rare Edwardian jewelry. Whether or not you can attend in person, we hope you enjoy the thrill of the hunt.
