A few months ago I posted about this suite of Howard furniture selling on Ebay for almost £4000.

Well It went up for sale at Christies in what looks to be the exact same condition a couple of days back and reached a total price of: £7500

So I guess thats 1-0 to the old guard Christies. Also congrats to whoever it was that took a punt, bought it and put it in Christies, tidy little profit on that.
