With the major names of the pioneers beyond the purses of most admirers of Cotswolds School furniture, works by Sir Gordon Russell are steady sellers and 16 pieces offered at Mallams (20% buyer’s premium) all found buyers on March 16.
“We are near enough to his base on Broadway to see a lot of his material in the rooms and it sells both to collectors and specialist dealers,” said auctioneer Max Fisher.
