As one of the oldest and most famous ports in the world, Bristol has a rich trading history with the Far East and Asia, with vast quantities of objects being imported in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. We regularly uncover high-value objects in people’s homes from these periods.
Based at our Bath saleroom, our expert team has knowledge on Oriental ceramics, jewellery, Jade, bronze objects of virtu and works on paper.
Demand for these objects has seen a huge increase in the last two decades, with many Chinese and Asian bidders wishing to purchase items. As one of the counties leading salerooms, our easy no-barrier-bidding means your objects are instantly accessible by this market. If you have something you’d like to sell at auction, then please get in touch.
