Members’ favourites: our favourite art galleries and antique dealers on The List
Whether it's a new piece or just new to you, art and antiques are a great way of adding interest and personal style to a room. These details are often the ones people are drawn to and are the elements that we find ourselves most enthusiastic to talk about, as each piece has its own unique story.
Before buying art and antiques it's best to start by understanding how you'd like the pieces to look in a room. For example, if you're looking for a large painting for over the sofa in your sitting room it's a good idea to measure before going and looking at art as you don't fall in love with something that's too big or too small. Budget is also an important factor, try to be realistic (easier said than done) and only consider things that you can afford. This being said sometimes an object calls out to you and there is no turning your back on it, so there is always an element of trusting you gut when you find somthing truly special.
And where better place to find these special treasures than at auction houses and art galleries? In the UK, we've spoiled for choice when it comes to fabulous places to find these pieces, so if you're looking for a new art gallery or antique dealership to explore, look no further; we've rounded up some of our favourites from House & Garden's online design directory, The List. From hand-painted ceramics to antique artwork, we're sure you'll find loads of treasures to add to your collection.
