Silver & Gold
Bishop & Miller’s specialists have in-depth knowledge and experience in all areas of buying and selling gold and silver. This ranges from seeking out the most desirable and collectable objects of virtue for auction or valuing and securing the best prices for your silver and gold items.
All That Glitters
Silver and Gold have always been popular throughout history, these precious metals will always have their intrinsic value, but it is often the style and quality that makes them so desirable and the reason that sellers can see such great returns.
From our auction houses in Suffolk and Norfolk, we deal with a wide range of gold and hallmarked antique sterling silver service vessels. From tableware and flatware to snuff boxes, candlesticks, mirrors, and decorative objects of virtue. Additionally, our team have the equipment to help determine the precious metal content in unmarked ‘white’ and ‘yellow’ metal objects.
At Bishop & Miller, we love to see new items and new collections, and our specialist valuers are always available to offer free, no-obligation advice. We can help from appraising your items on dates, makers, carats and current market values to guiding you through all aspects of buying and selling silver and gold at auction.
