Interested in exploring the potential of your collection? Please contact the department below or using our online portal.


As of 28 June 2025, lots in this auction that are of non-EU origin, of a certain age and, in some categories, above a certain value may be subject to additional requirements for import into the European Union. Bidders are advised to make their own enquiries and obtain independent advice to determine whether these additional requirements apply to a given lot before bidding. It is the Buyer's responsibility to apply for any required export or import licence or permit, and/or submit an importer statement, where required. A Buyer’s inability or delay in obtaining an export or import licence or permit, and/or submitting an importer statement, where required, will not be a legitimate basis for sale cancellation or a delay in payment.
