Wednesday 23 January 2008, 10.30am at Christie’s South Kensington

Add the finishing touches of elegance to your home this January when items from Notting Hill Gate’s famous Casimir shop go under the hammer on Wednesday 23 January 2008 at 10.30am. With its origins in late 19th century London, the Casimir antiques business and family name have been synonymous for over 100 years with the finest works of art and in particular metalwares. The family’s decision to close its doors for the last time offers a rare chance to acquire selected pieces from the finest collection of its type to come to the market in recent times.

Choose from a remarkable array of kitchen-wares, including drinking vessels, coffee pots, beer tankards and some 100 different jelly moulds, as well as fireplace furniture, candlesticks, chandeliers and some magnificent chargers dating to the Renaissance.
