pinnacle of clock-making artistry. Antique barometers, often paired with clocks, offer another layer of intrigue and elegance. Antique Militaria, Weapons & Medals We host quarterly auctions dedicated to militaria, which encompasses a wide range of items including medals, swords, pistols, and other antique weapons, as well as artefacts specifically linked to the First and Second World Wars. These collectables, ranging from Second World War memorabilia to antique war medals, serve as poignant reminders of the sombre periods in history they represent. Despite their connection to times of turmoil and Empire, these items offer us invaluable insights into the social conditions, lifestyles, and experiences of those who lived through these challenging periods, as well as bringing to light forgotten heroes. They memorialise the lives that were lost and the sacrifices that were made, ensuring that such histories are not forgotten. Vintage Fashion Vintage Fashion, Textiles and Luxury Items have formed an important part of our sales programme for some years, with highlights ranging from luxury handbags by Chanel and Hermès, luggage by Louis Vuitton, and fashion items by leading designer brands from Yves St Laurent and Burberry to Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana and Armani. We have also enjoyed handling a wide selection of cutting edge designs from the 1960s by the likes of Mary Quant, Ossie Clark and Jean Muir, complemented by an exciting range of shoes and accessories, from, scarves to sunglasses.
