This is a post about the preview of the Sotheby's auction of Deborah Duchess of Devonshire. I know there has been a lot of press and blogs about it but I haven't seen many pictures from the preview so thought I would share as some of my friends who live in other countries couldn't attend.
Don't worry those roses are real!
No, I didn't bid on any of the items as I like the Duchess well enough but I haven't been a fan of sorts until I realized we had some similar seating! ;)
My previous post was about the Georgian cane and ebonised pieces.
The chairs that are similar to the ones I have were used as dining chairs.
I love the curve of the arm.
