Three Generations of Expertise. One Standard.
Our StoryHawkins Antiques has been trading since 1960 - now in its third generation. We specialise in British and French antique furniture of the 18th and 19th centuries, sourced by hand from private collections, auctions, and estates across Europe.
Every piece is personally selected, honestly described, and delivered with care. We serve private collectors, interior designers, and trade buyers across the UK, Europe, the USA, and Asia.
We are not a warehouse. We are not a clearance house. We are curators of furniture with history - and we take that responsibility seriously.
