Antique removals in Chelsea
Period furniture and heirlooms deserve more than a blanket and a hope. Our antique service is individually wrapped, hand-carried and expertly handled — the specialist work Chelsea’s townhouses ask for.
Chelsea’s period homes are full of pieces that cannot simply be shifted — a marquetry commode, a long-case clock, a gilt mirror, a dining table that has been in the family for generations. Moving them well is a specialist discipline, and it is one of the reasons prime addresses come to us. Every antique is assessed, individually wrapped and padded, and carried by hand along a protected route, never dragged or rushed.
The care extends to the fragile particulars: clock movements and pendulums secured or removed, marble tops carried separately and upright, glazed doors and drop-leaves protected, veneers and gilding shielded from knocks and pressure. Where a piece is especially valuable or awkward, we crate it bespoke. Our crews do this routinely, calmly and with the discretion a private home expects.
