Description

31 Old Bond Street is a commercial building constructed between 1898 and 1900 by Beresford Pite, featuring sculpture by Farmer and Brindley based on models by Chavalliaud. The building is faced with stucco and has a slate roof, showcasing a style of free classicism combined with Pite's unique use of sculpture. It stands four storeys tall and has one wide bay. The ground floor includes a mid-20th century shop window and door set within the original architrave frame.

The upper floors feature tripartite windows, with distinctive capitals on the dividing piers of the first floor and on the columns of the second floor. The third floor window is segmental arched and rises into an open segmental pediment that crowns the front of the building. This pediment is supported by quoin pilasters, which are adorned at the base with crouching female figures reminiscent of Michelangelo's work. Between the first and second floors, there are shallow relief panels of draped female figures, recessed within the quoin pilasters, reflecting the style of Jean Goujon. In front of the third floor window, there is an iron trelliswork railing with ornately finialed flanking standards.
