As well as inviting bids in our modern saleroom, we employ the latest online technology to extend our regular auction sales to real-time bidders worldwide across multiple platforms.

We are continually seeking out desirable lots, and revising and evaluating the contents and themes of our auctions to meet the ever-changing demands of collectors, connoisseurs and investors. In recent years there has been an explosion of public interest in vintage items and antiques, fueled by popular TV programmes.
