Silver

We regret that, following government advice, it has been necessary to postpone the 28th and 29th April auction. A new date will be announced in due course. In the meantime, you can keep up to date with changes to our auction calendar by clicking here. 

The Silver department holds quarterly which include antique and modern items, flatware, foreign, Scottish and Irish silver, objects of vertu and private collections.  The department holds a number of records for highest prices, including a Victorian silver 'castle-top' card case of Dublin Post Office for £9,800, which was part of the Arthur Holder Collection of Silver and Objects of Vertu.  Recent highlights also include a Victorian silver centrepiece presented by the King of Netherlands, which was sold for £36,000 to an overseas museum, and in the 29th October 2019 Fine Silver & Objects of Vertu auction a Scottish parcel-gilt silver model of a three-masted galleon, once belonging to John Entwistle, bass guitarist of The Who, which sold for £22,000.

Please contact the department to discuss consigning any items, whether collections or single lots.
