Fine furniture has long played an important role in the UK antiques trade, both academically and commercially. While the market has changed considerably over time, well-made furniture continues to attract collectors and buyers.
Our furniture specialists in Sussex and London work closely with the current market and provide clear, informed valuations based on individual pieces.
When assessing furniture for sale, we consider factors such as quality, age, rarity and condition. Although works by established makers often achieve strong results, there is also growing interest in later and modern vintage furniture.
