Overview

Antique Furniture in Malta looks at furniture over the centuries. As well as being an excellent guide, it is highly informative and generously illustrated. A team of authoritative scholars writes on Maltese furniture - domestic and ecclesiastic, while an experienced auctioneer looks at developments in the salesrooms over the years. In addition, two experts from Sotheby's in the United Kingdom write about English and European furniture. The book also includes a lavishly illustrated catalogue of the major exhibition Antique Furniture in Malta held at St James Cavalier, Valletta.
