Although the business bought and sold a wide variety of architectural antiques, Drummond Shaw’s main passion was classic bathrooms.

His company began producing its own bathroom collections, made using the same materials and traditional manufacturing techniques from previous centuries.

Today Drummonds is a leading bathroom specialist with showrooms in London and New York. Although having taken more time to spend with his family and pursue his other passions, Drummond was still a driving force within the company, and leaves behind his wife and three children.
