Page 60 - Haddonstone Gesamtkatalog 2018

At the 2014 Chelsea Flower Show, Haddonstone launched a fabulous collection of designs, replicated from
historic works of art on display at the renowned Sir John Soane’s Museum in London. Sir John Soane
(1753-1837) was one of the most inventive and celebrated architects of his time. His surviving works include
Pitzhanger Manor, Ealing, and his house in Lincoln’s Inn Fields, London (now the Soane Museum) which is
probably his greatest legacy.

The Museum contains his astonishing collection of artefacts. Under the licencing agreement between
Haddonstone and the Museum, the Museum will benefit financially from every sale made from the exquisite
Soane Museum Collection. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a design from the Museum’s historic
collection for your own home, garden or landscape. See also pages 54, 112 and 114-115.
