- We will carefully review your enquiry.
- If the object is of interest, we will contact you to discuss the next steps.
What Should I Send?
- Photographs from several angles
- Close-up images of signatures, hallmarks or labels
- Approximate dimensions
- Information about the materials, if known
- Any available history or provenance
- Where the object came from or how it was acquired
The more information you provide, the more accurate our initial assessment can be.
Fair and Professional Approach
Every object is evaluated individually.
We consider authenticity, rarity, condition, craftsmanship, historical significance and current collector demand before making any offer.
Our aim is to provide honest advice and fair offers based on experience and respect for historical objects.
Collector’s Advice
Please avoid cleaning, polishing or restoring an antique before it has been evaluated.
Original patina, finishes and signs of age often contribute significantly to an object’s collector appeal and historical value.

Every Object Has a Story
Some antiques have been treasured by families for generations.
Others have been forgotten in attics, basements or old houses.
Whatever their journey, every object deserves to be understood before a decision is made.
We believe that preserving history begins with recognising the value of the objects that carry it.
If you think you may own something special, we would be delighted to hear from you.
