If we do not have the item you are looking for, we are always happy to find exactly the right piece at the right price. We are constantly looking and have contacts in all the right places! If we find something we will substantiate its originality and offer it to you without obligation. We can even organize restoration when necessary. Our usual charge is in the region of 15% plus VAT.

Buying on Commission

If you spot something special at an auction or with another dealer, we will check it over on your behalf, advise on value and negotiate the best price available. Charges are approximately 5% plus a mileage charge for travelling.

Restoration

We are in a unique position to offer advice on most aspects of restoration, repair and conservation. We can recommend skilled craftsmen in such diverse disciplines as cabinet making, polishing, upholstery, horology (clocks and watches), silversmithing and ceramic restoration.

Purchasing

We are always eager to buy and endeavour to offer the fairest possible price. We take pride in our belief that, in every transaction, you get a better deal than we think you would do elsewhere.

Selling on Commission

If you prefer, we are in some instances willing to sell your item on a commission basis. We will advise on achievable price, recommend any restoration when necessary and sell, usually in a retail environment. Commission rates vary depending on the item or collection but are usually preferable to selling at auction.

Valuations

We provide professional valuations for insurance, probate, division, buying and selling. Please enquire for full details.

Estate Services

A major part of our business is involved in dealing with deceased estates. We provide assistance in every aspect from securing the property, providing valuations for probate, assisting with fair division amongst beneficiaries, advise on selling and disposal of all contents and chattels. We can even supply a full ‘house clearance’ service using registered and trust-worthy contractors that have worked with us for many years. Our enviable reputation has earned us the respect and patronage of many leading solicitors that engage our services for estates of all sizes. Click here for further details.
