The approach

Experienced, practical advice

A valuation should explain what an item is, the market it belongs in and the basis for the opinion. Addison brings commercial auction-house experience as well as an understanding of the questions owners usually need answered.

In practice

What can be discussed

Initial enquiries may involve an individual item, jewellery, art, antiques or a broader collection. Clear photographs and any known provenance are useful starting points.

  • Art and decorative objects
  • Antiques and furniture
  • Jewellery and watches
  • Private and inherited collections

What matters

Start with a conversation

The appropriate next step depends on the item and the purpose of the valuation. Contact Addison with a short description and photographs where possible. He can then advise whether further inspection is appropriate.

The money raised is a testament to your skill and craft as auctioneer. Thank you for your invaluable input and support.
