Carlton Hobbs LLC specializes in the acquisition, conservation, and research of 17th, 18th and 19th century British and Continental furniture and works of art, with a focus on pieces of exceptional merit, including specially commissioned items with royal or aristocratic provenance and pieces designed by architects.
Recognizing the importance of provenance, maker and artistic content, the company takes an academic approach to the acquisition of historically significant pieces, using comprehensive specialist antiques archives of several thousand books and source materials.
Carlton Hobbs LLC sells to a discreet customer base, concentrating on major private and institutional collectors. We have exhibited at the most prestigious vetted international antiques fairs, including the Biennale in Paris, Grosvenor House in London and both the Fall and Winter Antiques Shows at the Armory in New York.
