Hilde Cornelissen Interiors

A special design auction will take place on November 30. Around 110 lots from Hilde Cornelissen Interiors will go under the hammer starting at 7:00 PM.

Hilde Cornelissen, who began her career in California, has been using her expertise for several decades to incorporate exceptional American-made designer furniture into her comprehensive designs from her (beautiful) building, located in Antwerp’s Arenbergstraat. On the European continent, these designs by the likes of Barbara Barry, Laura Kirar, Thomas Pheasant, and Kara Mann for brands such as Baker/McGuire, Donghia NY, and Arteriors are rather rare.

Cornelio Cappellini for Hessentia Est.: € 12000-15000
Kara Mann for Baker Est.: € 3500-4500

Under ‘A New Breeze’, Bernaerts presents this ensemble of overseas luxury with European finesse, featuring brands such as Giorgetti, Wittmann, Emmemobili, and Peter Ghyczy.
