The Best auction houses of london
Whether you're hunting for the latest addition to your extensive gallery, or just keen on browsing through rows of the antique and exotic, London's Top Auction Houses will never disappoint.
Christie's
Entering Christie's empty handed means you'll leave with them full. Their extensive variety, from modern and contemporary works to foreign artefacts, makes them an extremely popular company. Their London auctions are held at the venue in St James's.
Bonhams
Giants in antiques and art, Bonhams is one of the oldest auction houses in Britain. Originally solely selling books, it steadily evolved to auctioning various antiquities. The locations in Montpelier and Bond Street are perfect for those looking for old beauty. One of the company's most renowned sales was the painting of Madonna Laboris, sold for almost £7.9 million.
RM Sotheby's
A specialist auctioneer that markets the classic and collectable. They are a branch of Sotheby's, arguably the biggest and oldest auction house in the world, that sell rare and coveted motor cars. RM Sotheby's boasts a huge range of sports cars, most notably their record of Ferrari racing cars, the most expensive malleting down at a staggering £51.7 million.
Roseberys
Lesser known and more recently founded, Roseberys is proof that bigger isn't better. Their auctions centre on fine art and desirable antiques, and are frequently sold at medium price ranges. Artists looking for more revenue and attraction often sell their work to Roseberys's auctions; a bidding record was set for Aubrey Williams when her painting Rastaman was sold for over £22,000.
Chiswick Auctions
Attending an event here will probably mean coming out with something you didn't even know you needed. While there is no particular speciality, Chiswick Auctions prefers to showcase the unique and miscellaneous; contemporary furnishings, ancient coins, and even movie memorabilia. This variety allows them to cater to all sorts of tastes and budgets.
