Potterton Books London is the capital’s branch of Potterton Books, a company that has been going for over 25 years, which has its head office  in North Yorkshire, and also branches in New York and Los Angeles. We specialise in inspirational books on interior design, the fine and decorative arts, antiques, gardens and flowers, architecture, fashion and jewellery, photography, lifestyle and culture. We supply books to interior designers, antique dealers, and the public from our four international bases and from the numerous art, antique and design fairs that we exhibit at around the world.


The London shop is based in the heart of Chelsea’s interiors and antiques district and provides a unique selection of titles on design, art a
nd culture. As well as holding and sourcing the new key titles from across the world on our specialist subject areas, we also sell (and source) a wide range of out-of-print and rare books  that we believe are still the essential works on their subject. The books are perfect for both the professional and for anyone who wants inspirational and beautiful books for themselves or as a gift.
