N.B.

Thomas Malby's map & globe firm continued under the stewardship of his son from 1851, who was was still recorded as operating in business in 1884. Thomas Malby closely linked himself with the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, as a way of marketing his products to the rising middle class of Britain. W J Gravener Antiques is a family owned business, started in 1963 by William who was joined by son, Mark in 1981 and continues today with the same ethos of dealing in fine quality English and Continental furniture, mirrors and decorative objects, from the 18th & 19th centuries. Now under the stewardship of Mark and his wife, Louise, we take pride in maintaining the high standards which William set more than 50 years ago.
