Marcel Proust was one of their more famous clients, purchasing numerous items there and even selling some of his own antique furniture through them. In a 1912 letter to his friend, the composer Reynaldo Hahn, Proust mentions a pair of antique tables de salon that Hahn examined for him at Hopillart.

Now in its second generation, Loveday Antiques specialises in an eclectic mix of 18th to 20th Century European furniture and works of art, with a strong emphasis on quality, uniqueness and colour.
