What Our Customers Say

We tried to look in a few stores before my colleague directed me to The House of Antiques in London.

The lighting that I needed for our new store had to be different and unique to showcase our window display. The item I purchased was a one off and looks amazing in our shop window.

A pleasure to deal with and very cool things if you’re looking for that unique item.
