The fine quality furniture, decorative objects and works of art that embellish so many domestic environments, have always, and still do, form the backbone of Duke's auction sales. With specialisms in every area, from traditional English and Continental furniture, porcelain, sculpture and glass to lighting, fireplace accoutrements, cast iron furnishings and metalware - and everything else in between - Duke’s has it covered.
The stylish viewing rooms, state-of-the-art facilities and curatorial approach to cataloguing, create ideal conditions for enhanced sales prices. This is strongly evidenced in recent auctions, where sometimes sombre sections of the market have ignited with vibrant bidding, optimising hammer prices. We recognise the value in Georgian and Victorian craftsmanship, as well as in decorative pieces of any period, and we are extremely well positioned in the market to maximize hammer prices for our clients.
Many of these specialist areas are, by their nature, heavy to move, so our team is always on hand to value items in-situ, at your convenience.
