African & Oceanic Art and Antiquities

<b>Sale number:</b> 556 <br> <br>  
We were delighted to offer the African and Oceanic collection of Chester Jones (lots 21 - 36), one of the U.K.’s most highly respected designers within our 1st May 2019 auction of African &amp; Oceanic Art and Antiquities in Edinburgh. After initially training as an architect, Jones spent 21 years at Colefax &amp; Fowler, running their modern design arm before beginning his own practice in 1990. Working in close collaboration with his clients, his encyclopaedic knowledge and ability to produce acutely personal spaces led to him becoming the foremost interior designer working in the U.K. today.
