What is it worth?

The popularity of Flog It and the Antiques Roadshow demonstrates clearly that many of us have no idea of the value of a family antique.  Silverwoods is here to help provide you with that knowledge whether for interest, insurance or sale. It can be an exciting voyage of discovery that an antique, or memorabilia has an unexpected value. Sometimes the opposite may be true but whatever the outcome you will be able to decide with confidence whether to consign to auction, or keep it in the family. The decision and choice is yours and Silverwoods is happy to offer guidance and advice. 

How do I arrange an Appraisal?

Family Possessions
Step 1

Consider sending us some images of the objects and email them to us for an initial appraisal as it is everyone's interest to ensure items are saleable. 

Note: If possible show artists signatures, silver hallmarks and ceramic inscription. Otherwise for multiple objects a short video would help with making an initial assessment.

Step 2

Make an appointment to meet one of our specialist valuers and we will tell you then if it is worth offering for sale. Appointments can now be made any weekday, 9.0am - 3.0pm by calling 01200 423322

Note: Within a large consignment, or house clearance some items may not be of sufficient value to cover minimum commission; in those cases we can offer advice on other options for their disposal.
