William Crockford, a Londoner son of a fishmonger, was the owner of a gambling house that caught the attention of every English celebrity back in 1827. For several years this members’ club was a place of exclusiveness and tons of money circulated there, which led to him becoming one of England’s richest men. Beyond that Crockford was an entrepreneur and horse racing enthusiast.Structured in walnut wood upholstered in linen, with carefully handcrafted rattan details, the Crockford Sofa honors William Crockford.
