large garden pieces |
|
|
|
|
Need a pair of English Cavaliers, a gorilla or a trio of acrobatic children – all lifesize – for the garden? Thought so…well here they are, alongside other lifesize characters like Samurai warriors,
Buddhas, Roman Gladiators, horses, lions, crocodiles, bears and enough other animals to open a zoo. We like supersized pieces so come view them in our special outside garden and architectural section at our Hertfordshire / North London showroom.
Below we curate some of our favourite recently acquired highlights. Whether it’s that small accent piece or a selection for a new interiors scheme, Canonbury Antiques have all bases covered. We are based in the UK and can ship anywhere in the world and continue to accept payments in all major currencies. Have a great weekend.
