Buoyant market for Antique & Decorator's auctionA collection of ANTIQUARIAN BOOKS and folios exceeded expectations realising in excess of 12,000 with a single folio achieving 6,500 at auction, excellent news for the client who had inherited the collection but decided to sell in order to release funds. The auction attracted bidders from throughout the UK and internationally, from as far afield as India, once again proving the effectiveness of the internet for auction marketing. Bidding was keen for other lots including a collection of large Scottish familiy portraits.
