about
'Conjure the room that never existed'
Doe & Hope specialise in decorative, rare & unusual antiques and fine art from around the world taking a particular interest in the atmosphere that surrounds an object, taking a cinematic approach to the presentation of our inventory. Our house style is probably best described as theatrical; being a concoction of old money, dramatic decorative, and faded gentility, with common themes of both humour and the macabre running through our inventory, that includes both academic and playful objects.
We are proud to be members of LAPADA, the UK's largest association of professional art and antiques dealers, and we were delighted to be included in Homes & Antiques '50 Best Antique Shops' in the UK for 2016 and The Shopkeepers 2022 'Best Shops'. Over the years we have supplied many large film and television productions with key pieces including the very popular Game of Thrones. We have also had a concession in the prestigious Liberty of London department store in 2015. Every object tells a story and we are the storytellers...
"Always take great pleasure in looking at your remarkable inventory of delicious and delightful things" ~ Stephen Fry
