Cabana Presents: Portrait of a Home with Gordon Watson in Tangier

Video Description

“Tangier isn’t about restaurants or hotels — it’s about houses,” says Gordon Watson. The mystique of the Northern Moroccan city - where Gordon has lived - lies not in gastronomy or hospitality but behind unassuming doors in quiet alleyways, which reveal palatial residences furnished to the hilt with rare treasures. Legendary antique dealer, decorator, and collector Gordon Watson invites Cabana Films into his 1840s home in one of Tangier’s oldest quarters — a space alive with memory and layered with objects of wonder: an ever-evolving cabinet of curiosity. After four decades of dealing in antique and 20th century furniture, silver, and fine Cartier jewellery, Gordon moved from London to Tangier full time. “I don’t think an antique dealer ever really retires,” he admits. Now, he surrounds himself with what he loves: “I just buy what I want,” he shrugs. “I think I’ve got a good eye.” For more design and decoration, subscribe to Cabana Magazine: https://cabanamagazine.com/products/cabana-magazine-subscription Visit the World of Cabana for weekly stories and interiors: https://cabanamagazine.com/pages/world-of-cabana More from Cabana: Website: www.cabanamagazine.com Instagram: @cabanamagazine Subscribe to our newsletter: https://cabanamagazine.com/pages/signup Magazine Subscription: https://cabanamagazine.com/products/cabana-magazine-subscription
