As she reminisces about it herself, “This home was filled with some of the treasures of my life. The items offered in Christie’s Interiors auction range from very personal pieces designed by friends and renowned furniture makers such as Thomas Messel to keepsakes that I discovered on the road while travelling for concerts.”
My family and I shared only the happiest moments in this home and I hope my possessions bring the new owners equal happiness and joy”.
