A South Indian giltwood and polychrome throne chair, Tamil Nadu, mid-19th century India: circa 1850 Provenance: Andrew Allfree A lifetime of travel, an obsession with colour, a love for India and interiors of intelligent timelessness – the long-standing passions of Andrew Allfree underpin this collection of objects and furniture, brought together over decades by the English interiors and antiques advisor. I‘Haut Bohemians’ are aesthetes who cultivate their eye and sharpen their minds, creating multi-layered and antihierarchical interiors in which every eloquent object has a story to tell. Andrew Allfree’s shrewd taste and his rich body of work are fine embodiments of this concept, present throughout this selection in characterful Anglo-Indian furniture, bespoke lighting designed for Allfree interiors, exquisite textiles and unexpected European objects
