Jimmie Martin, Kylie and The Lighthouse Gala Auction
Jimmie Martin is one of my favourite furniture designers and he's been featured in Vogue, Harpers, Style, Flux and countless other publications. Jimmie's created a bespoke chair that incorporates a hand-painted portrait of Kylie (taken from the Showgirl Homecoming tour), with hundreds of Swarovski crystals adorning the headdress as well as armrests along side Kylie's very own handwritten signature. All of his chairs are amazing and unique. This chair is to be auctioned off at The Lighthouse Gala Auction 2008 in aid of Terrence Higgins Trust on the 10th of March at Christie's, St James's.
Auction Estimate £4,000 - £6,000. For more info contact Hannah Monteith at hannah.monteith@tht.org.uk or 020 7812 1667.
