The sale is open for viewing on the Thursday before the sale, 9am to 6pm, and again on the mornings of the sale itself: Friday and Saturday from 8am until the sale begins at 9.30am.
We strongly recommend attending the viewing before bidding. This gives you the opportunity to inspect condition, scale, and quality first-hand, which can be difficult to assess from catalogue images alone. Our team will be on hand to answer questions and provide additional condition reports on request.
The sale begins promptly at 9.30am and runs at approximately 90 lots per hour. It is worth checking the lot numbers of items you are interested in and planning your time accordingly.
In the Saleroom Attend in person and register at the saleroom office ahead of the sale. The best way to get a feel for the room and respond to the pace of bidding in real time.
Online Live bidding is available through the-saleroom.com, easyliveauction.com and go-auction.com. Register in advance as approval can take time. Note that online platforms may carry their own additional fees.
Commission Bids Submit a maximum bid in advance and our team will bid on your behalf up to that amount. Complete the online form via the menu bar.
Telephone Bids Ideal for higher-value lots. We will call you during the sale so you can bid in real time. Register via the online form well in advance of the sale day.
A buyer's premium of 23.5% (28.2% including VAT) is applied to the hammer price of all lots. Please factor this into your maximum bid. As an example: a lot that hammers at £1,000 will cost £1,282 in total including VAT.
Successful bidders are welcome to collect from the saleroom following the sale. Goods will be stored free of charge for up to one week from the date of sale.
