AUTUMN AUCTION OF SELECTED ANTIQUES

The auction rooms have been extremely busy over the last two weeks; first a successful Antiques sale followed a week later by the Autumn special Fine Art and Clock sale. Trade was much better on the middle range furniture helped by some overseas buyers who are back on the scene now that sterling has dipped.

David Dickinson and his Real Deal team were here filming at the specialist sale, their lots generally fared well and if you were in the saleroom being filmed then you will see yourself in glorious technicolour in about 6 months time.

A selection of some of the lots sold are illustrated below, the next Antiques sale is on Tuesday 3rd November, this sale already includes an early 18th Century oak Refectory Table, late 19th Century fine quality carved oak Side Cabinet, a collection of Oriental pottery and porcelain, Georgian mahogany Secretaire Bureau and many other interesting items.
