OUR STORY
Lorfords has been a continually evolving project since 2001. Toby Lorford left behind a career in London’s broadcast and PR world in the late 1990s, gradually following in his father’s footsteps in the trade of beautiful old things. By 2003, the first Lorfords Antiques shop opened its doors in Tetbury. Two years later, the business settled into its home at 30 Long Street and hasn’t looked back since.
The eponymous brand has evolved into Europe's premier destination for decorative and traditional antiques and vintage pieces spanning three large showrooms in and around Tetbury.
With an extensive collection of antique tables and seating, cabinetry and rugs, mirrors, lighting, garden furniture and decorative objects, it has become a one-stop shop for interior designers from across the globe.
