Twas a Jamie Hewlett original actually. Subsequently sold it back to him alongside some artwork he did in the early 90's.

Only you would confuse a sofa with a work of art. No wonder it took you sooooo long to finally buy one.

Keeps the money in the bank for longer and you get more interest as a result ... WIN!

Ownart Scheme

Has anyone bought some artwork on this scheme (10 months interest free loan backed by the government i.e. The Arts Council)?
