1. One of four coveted BADA fair awards is that given for Best Object. Thomas Coulborn & Sons fought off the competition to win the 2018 award for its George II pietra dura and mahogany cabinet-on-stand. The pietra dura panels are attributed to the celebrated Grand Ducal workshops of Florence, c.1650, while the cabinet-on-stand is English and dated c.1755.
