Our annual lighting special is back, and more radiant than ever...

As the evenings grow longer, it’s the perfect time to peruse our pick of the chicest designs around, and discover the fascinating legacy of Tiffany lamps and delicate Murano glass.

Our four home tours are atmospheric and inspiring, from a 16th-century Dutch farmhouse to a sustainability-focused townhouse in Royal Tunbridge Wells.

We also head to Kensington for a chic minibreak with great food, antiquing spots, and the royal seal of approval.

Caroline Wheater uncovers a first edition Tolkien from a Bristol house clearance that garnered worldwide interest, and rounds up the recent hammer prices that really matter.

Emma Longstaff explores the unsung genius of women’s war art, and we get more familiar with the ghost signs hidden in plain sight in towns and cities across the UK.

Plus, find previously unfinished William Morris designs, our guide to decorating with metallics, and Luke Honey’s current fascination, automata, before browsing November’s best antiques and vintage sales across the UK.

Enjoy a glimpse of what to look forward to in our November 2025 issue!
