Rugby Antiques

Our standing within the market was established through landmark sales including the 1905–06 New Zealand All Blacks jersey worn by Dave Gallaher, sold by us in 2015 for £180,000, at the time a world record for a rugby jersey at auction.

We later broke our own world record with the sale of Sir Gareth Edwards’ famous 1973 Barbarians jersey, worn during the celebrated try against New Zealand, which realised £240,000 and became the highest price ever achieved for rugby memorabilia at auction.

We are known for conducting dedicated rugby memorabilia auctions centred around some of the sport’s most iconic names and moments. These have included auctions for the collections of Sir Gareth Edwards and the JPR Williams, featuring match-worn jerseys from Welsh internationals, British & Irish Lions tours, and historic Barbarians fixtures. 

Our specialist Club House auctions have become firmly established within the rugby collecting world. These sales combine historic rugby memorabilia with carefully selected sporting and popular culture collectables, attracting a loyal international audience of buyers. The depth of our knowledge, targeted marketing, and established collector base allows us to present important rugby artefacts with the expertise and historical understanding they deserve. Such sales attract strong bidding from collectors across Britain, Europe, Australasia, and South Africa, with vendors from as far away as South Africa consigning items with us.

For collectors and vendors alike, we offer more than simply an auction platform — we provide a specialist home for rugby history.
