Mullen's of Laurel Park Classic and Contemporary Interior online sale is currently open and ends on Sunday, November 7th. Over 600 lots include the contents of a Dublin 4 property and other clients.
“It is probably our best sale all year and we’ve had great interest,” says Joe Mullen. “The majority of lots were collected over the years at auction houses in London and Ireland, so it is of a great standard.”
Included in the sale is a fine mahogany and marquetry china display cabinet (lot 154, €1,200-€1,600) and a pair of 19th century inlaid fold over card tables (lot 134, €800-€1,200), along with a Georgian mahogany hunt table (lot 69, €500-€700).

With over 1,000 lots that include wall art, soft and leather furnishings and mid-century, vintage and retro-style furniture, Mee expects to attract bidders from around the world due to its diverse range. Some items, such as tables, sofas and chairs, are almost new having been used as display stock “and most likely never sat on”, according to Mee.
“The impressive collection has a modern and decorative twist, and it is not to be missed in the run-up to the festive season when many interior lovers will be adding new items to their homes or seeking out deals on unique gifts.”
