6. What is the size of your entire inventory?
Kentshire has one of the largest, if not the largest, inventories of fine English antiques to be found anywhere. The thousands of items in our diverse collection are attractively displayed in room-settings throughout our eight gallery floors. More important than the size, is the quality of our inventory. Each object is carefully selected and epitomizes the best in design and workmanship.

7. How often do you receive new merchandise?
We add new items to our inventory and post a representative number of them on our web site on an almost daily basis. It often takes many months to receive an item after we have purchased it, so that we may have the object you are searching for, even if it is not yet on our site or in the gallery. Give us a call with your particular needs.

8. Do you buy furniture and accessories from individuals?
We are always interested in new acquisitions. Many of our things are purchased privately. If you have something you want to sell, please contact us via email. Photographs of the item on offer are helpful.

10. Do you carry only English antique furniture and accessories?
Our collection includes all that one would expect to find in a grand English country home.
