The parrot lamps are from Les Trois Garçons, while the ecclesiastical frames were bought from antiques dealer Mr Blighty: 'I got my measurements wrong. I thought they were 10in tall,' says Rose. "But they're so striking, it was a lucky accident!' BOLD
"I often have to say to myself, “is this too Trump Towers?” laughs Rose Hanson, when describing her attraction to antiques embellished with brass and gold. The TV-producer-turned-antiques dealer shares her five-bedroom townhouse in east London with her husband, comedian Josh Widdicombe, and their two young children. It's a space that she's filled with a diverse collection of antique and vintage finds, lending an air of comfortable opulence to the traditional Victorian property. Angular brass furniture and shapely ceramic lamps complement the original marble fireplaces and cast-iron radiators, while curved Art Deco mirrors and expressive artworks line the walls.
The original marble fire surround in the living room is a great place to show off Rose's collection of curios. The sofas are from Sofa.com.
