Mallett Antiques
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mallett is furniture and works of art agent and dealer based in London and New York. For most of the second half of the 20th century and the first decade of the 21st century, it occupied a position at the forefront of the English furniture trade, profiting from the growth in interest in the style of British and European 18th and 19th century furniture and works of art.
Founded in 1865, Mallett & Son Antiques was one of England's oldest dealers of fine furniture and works of art. They specialized in English and Continental furniture and decor. In 2017 Mallett was officially wound up by its last owner, Stanley Gibbons Ltd. It was purchased in 2018 by Gurr Johns, the international art advisory, brokerage and appraisals company with offices in London and New York. In 2023, Mallett was relaunched as part of the Gurr Johns Group, led by Rufus Bird, former Surveyor of the Queen's Works of Art and Christie's furniture specialist.
