Iconic Blue Bar Furnishings from The Berkeley to Be Auctioned by NCM

Interior design aficionados and seasoned collectors are being offered a unique chance to secure original pieces from The Berkeley, as luxury hospitality group Maybourne collaborates once again with NCM Auctions for an exclusive online sale.

On offer are select furnishings from the hotel’s celebrated Blue Bar—featuring made-to-order Ben Whistler pieces by Robert Angell, artisan lighting by Dernier & Hamlyn, and a range of upscale fixtures from its dining and drinks spaces. Gym-goers will also find high-spec Life Fitness equipment among the available lots.

The Blue Bar, first brought to life by David Collins and later redesigned by Robert Angell Design International, has long been a destination for design lovers. Famed for its vivid Lutyens blue tones, exquisite craftsmanship, and curated art, the bar’s interior has become iconic. Its signature chairs, lighting, and sofas are now up for auction.

With many items custom-built for The Berkeley’s interiors, this is a rare opportunity to purchase luxury furniture with a celebrated design heritage.

This initiative builds on earlier successful sales by NCM Auctions and Maybourne, including campaigns for Claridge’s, The Connaught, and past Berkeley collections. The partnership promotes a sustainable approach to luxury, ensuring premium pieces are reused rather than discarded.

Amy Rutherford, Partnership Lead at NCM, said: “These are beautiful, well-crafted pieces with a story. It’s a great example of how sustainability for the hospitality industry doesn’t mean compromise. It means extending the life of luxury design. We’re proud to be working with Maybourne again to give these iconic pieces a new chapter.”

Whether buyers are designing an intimate bar, outfitting a creative space, or seeking a show-stopping piece for their home, the auction is packed with treasures steeped in design legacy.

Interested bidders can view the catalogue online and register now. Bidding ends 11 June from 12pm.

A viewing day will take place on 10 June by appointment only. For more information, please contact NCM Auction on 01302 898260 or email [email protected].
