Over 30 Years of Excellence in the Heart of Nottingham

Since our founding in 1993, we have grown into one of the UK’s leading regional Fine Art auctioneers. Our light and spacious Nottingham saleroom is more than just a place of business; it is a destination for collectors, investors, and homeowners alike.

Whether you are a seasoned collector or looking to sell a family heirloom, we pride ourselves on a service that is as professional as it is approachable. We are located under two hours from London and just a five-minute hop from Nottingham railway station, making us perfectly positioned for buyers and sellers nationwide.

Led by Nigel Kirk and a Team of Specialists

Our director, Nigel Kirk, is a Chartered Surveyor and a familiar face on national television. His expertise, alongside our dedicated team, ensures that every item we handle is assessed with a deep understanding of its history and market value.

Comprehensive House Clearances & Valuations

We understand that clearing a property can be a daunting task. Our full house clearance service acts as an invaluable safeguard, ensuring that nothing of value is overlooked. We don't just move items; we identify the hidden gems that others might miss, from rare 19th-century ceramics to mid-century furniture.

• Free Valuation Days: We regularly host events across Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, and Worcestershire.
• Home Visits: For larger collections or estates, we can visit you directly to provide a professional assessment.
• Specialist Departments: We have dedicated experts for antiquarian books, manuscripts, rare coins, and Japanese works of art.

A Proven Track Record of Success

We have a long history of meeting and exceeding pre-sale estimates. Our auctions regularly feature high-profile lots, such as George II silver tea caddies that achieved £9,000 and rare Mintons porcelain.

"Our mission is to provide a knowledgeable assessment and a friendly, professional service that makes the world of the saleroom accessible to everyone."

Whether you are looking for a single item valuation or need to manage a complex estate, our team—including specialists like Mieko Gray for Japanese Art and Alan Judd for Coins—is here to ensure you receive the best possible advice and results.
