In an age where most furniture doesn't last five years let alone five hundred, Kate Thurlow's Gallery Forty One allows you to encounter early antique furniture from around Europe that really has stood the test of time. The craftsman made chairs, chests and tables jostle for your attention alongside ornate French giltwood mirrors and curiosities such as Indian fertility amulets made from seedpods. Kate Thurlow has been selling the early and unusual since the 1970s. After forty years of being shop based Kate moved in the new year to a spacious studio just south of Chelsea Bridge in Battersea.
