Hotspur Design sources antiques and works of art for clients through our extensive network of contacts in the art and antiques world. We operate within a broad price range and across the historical spectrum from antiquity to contemporary.

Tailor-made shopping trips can be arranged to visit antique trade sources around the country, many of which are not easily accessible and known only within the antique trade. Prices can be considerably lower than those in the retail sector.

We have a team of skilled craftsmen who can restore or produce bespoke items.

After many years of working with experts in a variety of other fields, we can also assist with sourcing property, jewellery (including antique and modern precious stones), musical instruments, antique arms and vintage cars.

We can arrange for valuations and legal advice in the art and property market.

Exclusive tours with expert guides to historic houses can be arranged, both in London and around the rest of the UK.

We often work closely with other interior designers assisting them to find a wide range of antiques and works of art. An example of this is where Caroline sourced paintings and Adam-style antiques for the interior designer Edward Bulmer while he was restoring the Robert Adam designed Home House in Portman Square. This was formerly the Courtauld Institute, now transformed into a private members' club.

Caroline redesigned some of the grand reception rooms for the Argentine Embassy in Belgrave Square, London.

She has also sourced a large quantity of antique furniture and rugs for Oppenheim's Bank in East Berlin and their branches in Stuttgart and Hamburg.
