May 2026

In the diary

May is a good month to be out early. The days are longer, the gardens are fresh and green, and the markets and antique fairs feel firmly back in rhythm. Thereโ€™s that particular May feeling too - summer not quite here, but close enough to make a weekend plan feel worth it. Chelsea Flower Show highlights our month this year as we host C.Atherley in our store.

Whether youโ€™re searching for a specific piece or just happy to see what turns up, weโ€™ve pulled together the antique fairs, vintage markets and design events worth making time for this month.

Get the diary out. Thereโ€™s plenty on.
