About Us

          Garret and Hurst Sculpture

 Garret and Hurst is a family-run company that has specialised in 19th century sculpture since 1992. The company was founded by Margaret Cowley and Wendy Grellman who decided to concentrate exclusively on their first love - sculpture - after some years of trading as general antique dealers. They were joined by Margaret's son, Peter, in 2003.

We are based in Sussex and exhibit at major Fine Art and Antiques fairs throughout the UK, including the BADA and LAPADA  fairs. We also have a small stand at Grays Antiques Market, Unit 130, 58 Davies Street, London W1K 5LP- open Monday to Friday

 Any piece for sale can be viewed here by prior appointment please phone or text Wendy 07976247942 or Peter 07966163697.

We pride ourselves on reflecting the art of 19th sculpture in our acquisition of signed figurative and animalier pieces of the highest quality by the master sculptors who exhibited at the Paris Salons. The difference between high quality 19th century casts and those later casts and imitations, often of poorer quality, that make up 20th century production make it important to discriminate between the two. This is the role that Garret & Hurst fulfils and as leading specialists in the field we are working to promote the increasing knowledge of and interest in sculpture from this fascinating period.

Buying from us

We specialise in fine early examples of ninteenth century work, sculpted and cast within the artist's lifetime with original patination, unless otherwise stated. In some instances where minor restoration has been carried out full details will be noted on item description and invoice.

As members of The British Antique Dealers Assocation BADA,  Garret & Hurst abide by a strict Code of Practice. All artworks are now available with a BADA Certificate of Provenance guaranteeing their authenticity. A description and condition report is also available with each sculpture.
