26th May 2026

Congratulations to Rupert Slingsby and Marielle Whiting FGA, who have both been promoted to Full Director positions in recognition of their many years of success, hard work and dedication at the company at Associate Director level.

Silver specialist Rupert commented,

“I joined Woolley & Wallis from Bonhams in 2009 and have been delighted to build one of the UK’s leading silver departments. Since then, the department has had the privilege of auctioning more than £20 million worth of silver, handling everything from rare early pieces to important private collections.”

While jewellery specialist, Marielle said,

"After 17 years with Woolley and Wallis I’m thrilled to be appointed Director. Having led the jewellery department for the past nine years, it has been so rewarding to see the department go from strength-to-strength. I’m hugely proud of what the team has accomplished together and excited for the opportunities ahead."
