A Visit To The Battersea Decorative Fair




Dazzle has Just returned from a wonderfully inspiring trip to the London Battersea Decorative Fair. For those not in the know it's an antique lovers dream - aimed at interior designers and active buyers, it's a brilliant barometer of the current and upcoming trends in antiques and interiors.






With 145 stands representing some of the influential dealers working today, one thing the fair really illustrates is that antiques are far from stuffy!!!!




The fair is held 3 times a year, in January, April and September. Over 6 days visitors can enjoy an eclectic range of beautiful items, expertly arranged in individually designed stands. Prominent items at the January fair included painted French furniture, Victorian taxidermy, Swedish furniture, antique glass chandeliers, reclaimed religious items and heavily aged antique mirrors.






The ethos behind the Decorative Fair is beauty - finding the decorative aspect in items some may ordinarily dismiss. The stands illustrate how to juxtaposition eclectic items in order to create a stunning space. Each dealer designs and arranges their own stand and the results can be truly inspirational!
