What can we value?

We value antiques, furniture, paintings, jewellery, watches, silver and collectables. You can ask about a single item, several pieces you’ve inherited or a collection you’ve built up over the years. If you’re unsure what something is or whether it might sell at auction, start by sending us a few photos.

If you’d like to see which types of objects our specialists handle, browse our auction departments.

How does an auction valuation work?

An auction estimate is a guide to what an item might sell for at auction. A valuer may look at who made it, its age, condition and how similar pieces have sold. The final price depends on what bidders are prepared to pay on the day.

The estimate is free and there’s no obligation to sell. If you decide to go ahead, we’ll talk you through the next steps, including which sale might suit your items and how to enter them. You can also read our guide to selling at auction.

What photos should I send?

Take a clear photo of the whole item and close-ups of any signatures, hallmarks, labels or damage. For furniture and pictures, include the measurements if you can. If you know who made it or where it came from, tell us that too. For a collection, a few group photos can help us see what you have.

Send your photos using our online form.
