SERVICES

If you are considering buying or selling antiques, art or other quality items, redesigning the interior of your home, or require professional research and advice, then we can provide a complete and efficient service. 

WE TAKE THE STRESS AWAY: We make all the necessary contacts and arrangements; negotiate on your behalf; deal effectively with auctioneers, dealers and traders, collectors and subject experts, buyers and sellers, craftsmen and carriers; and we keep you fully informed throughout. 

BUYING AND SELLING DIRECTLY

BUYING DIRECTLY FROM US is quick and easy, as our stock of quality items is extensive, well documented, on-line and available for immediate delivery or collection by arrangement from Sleaford or Grantham, Lincolnshire, UK. Browse our catalogue pages (on the side menu), where there are photos and detailed descriptions of our available stock, along with BUY IT NOW links to our e-commerce pages, where you can buy and pay (by all the usual methods) for items to be delivered or collected.

SELLING DIRECTLY TO US is just as easy, as we are always looking for quality items from around the UK and further afield for our clients and will complete purchases quickly, once you accept our offer. We buy both for our stock or for client assignments and will make an offer to purchase after a detailed assessment of your item. To begin, please Email Us with a description of your item(s), with photos if possible, or just Contact Us and we will guide you through from start to finish.

BUYING AND SELLING ON COMMISSION

SELLING YOUR ITEMS ON COMMISSION is made as easy as we can. We can often match your items to known client requirements to achieve a quick sale. Alternatively, we can arrange the most appropriate trade, auction or direct sale route to maximise your likely return. No matter what the item, we can take care of all the arrangements for you, from initial assessment to final delivery. Our commission service charge is from 10% (typically 20%) of the sale value, depending upon the exact services you require us to undertake. Please Email Us with a description of your item(s), with photos if possible, or just Contact Us to start things moving.

BUYING ITEMS ON COMMISSION enables us to research the market, advertise your requirements, and purchase items in your name or anonymously to an agreed limit. We can often match your requirements directly to known trade and individual sellers to quickly fulfil your needs. No matter what the item, we can take care of all the arrangements, initial request to final delivery.

RESEARCH

We provide an extensive  range of research services, as we are often requested to provide more than simple advice, identification and valuation of an item or work of art. In the past we have helped clients with complex identification and provenance research, collection and estate inventories, library catalogues, and even family artefact history research. We have both in-house expertise and access to specialist resources to be able to undertake extensive, but cost-effective research both in this country and around the world. Please Email Us with your requirements, or just Contact Us to discuss research options further.
