Merry & bright

For a moment, the house has fallen silent and still. What a change!

No 19 has seen extraordinary times, and this year was no different. The house played host to hot debates, book shoots, client visits, interviews, board meetings, exhibitions and some great parties.

Finally, we play host to Christmas, which we do quite publicly since we stand plumb in the middle of our bustling town. Miss Pickering has once again stopped the Christmas crowds in their tracks with her magical acanthus masterpiece. Inside we're privileged to have Lisa Hammond MBE and Nic Collins pots on loan from the remarkable Goldmark Gallery. As ever, our rooms have been beautifully dressed for Christmas by the multi-talented Pearl Bugg.

We'd love to thank our brilliant team, our friends, suppliers, cheerleaders, clients and every one of you for being on our journey with us in 2022. As ever, we're very excited about what next year may bring, and while nothing is easy at the moment, there are positives to be found, and we want to grab them, nurture them and help them grow into something we can all see.

Wishing you a bright and merry Christmas!

Matthew & Camilla
