Collecting and decorating started at an early age,and has have become a life long obsession.

An early example was arranging a cabinet of Wedgwood Jasperware against a backdrop of Chinoiserie wallpaper for my 8th birthday.

​

After University and in the early 1990s my greatest pastime was trawling the London antique markets gathering quite diverse collections of curiosities, Georgian mezzotint portraits, eighteenth century shoes,Victorian taxidermy, antique mirrors..... and ultimately began dealing from Bermondsey Market in 1996 focusing on  cut-steel, paste and mourning jewellery.

 

As Sian Harlowe Antiques I exhibited at Kempton Park from 1997- 2020, and continue to this day to be an exhibitor at the Horticultural Halls Antiques Fair, Vincent Square. Also by appointment in Grays Antique Market, usually on a sofa in Shop 127, the 'salon' of PBC Fine Art.

 

The passion for all works of art, furniture, pictures and jewellery particularly of the c18th remains,it is where I choose to live.There is always a new interpretation to discover, a slightly different design for a mourning ring, or a novel twist on the cresting of a Regency convex mirror. The quest never really ends.
