Mark Birley was known for his string of nightclubs which included Mark’s Club, George’s Bar, Harry’s Bar, The Bath & Racquets Club and most famously Annabel’s, named after his wife at the time, who later became known as Lady Annabel Goldsmith.

The name ‘Mark Birley’ still very much lives on today. His son Robin has opened 5 Hertford Street, which has already cemented itself as Mayfair’s number one club. Robin it seems has inherited his father's forensic eye for detail and relentless aim for total perfection.

Mark Birley had very particular ideas on how things should be done, he famously invented the muslin over the lemon, which is not only used all around London today, but all around the world. His eye for detail was not only evident throughout his clubs but also in the manner that he furnished his London home, Thurloe Lodge. It was here where Birley did a large amount of his entertaining and as his friend, Nina Campbell recalls, “being asked to Thurloe Lodge for Kitchen supper on Sunday night, summer lunch on the covered verandah, or a dinner party in the dining room was an invitation not to be refused. The food was never fussy, just perfectly delicious, the wines very spoiling, but the table was always laid in the most quietly luxurious way. Huge, starched damask napkins, oversized ivory pepper mills, apple green opaline finger bowls to name but a few”.

Now some years after he left this life, the contents of his private home are up for auction with Sotheby’s. His private collection includes works by Rossetti, Landseer and Munnings. Objects include Hermes backgammon boards and cigarette cases to monogramed silver and imperial porcelain. Alongside the vast collection of art and furniture, his wine cellar is also being sold, which includes various vintages of Haut Brion, Petrus and Chateaux Cheval Blanc.

Thurloe lodge’s contents is the ultimate testimony to Mark’s incredible taste. The auction which takes place on the 21st March in London will no doubt include friends wanting to have a little piece to remember him by, and those wanting to buy into this true visionary’s style and the man who is universally known as the most tasteful man in Britain.

Stand on and look so great!
I have several pair of slipper shoes for my babe and these are the first ones I grab every day. They fit great and stay on his feet. You can put them on quickly and get out the door. Not to mention they are so adorable!

Cute shoe that stays on
Very use to booties and shoes coming off of baby; however, the fasten on these prevent this without being too tight. The print is also adorable. Will purchase next size as baby's feet grow.

Expensive but they work
The nice thing about these is the snap. My baby has figured out Velcro but not snaps yet. I think they could cost a little less but they are good for when he is at daycare and we don't after to worry about him taking off his socks.

Cute runs a little big or my baby just has small feet. Still super cute and I put them on her to keep her feet warm.
