That's a wrap!

As another year draws to a close, we take a look at the ten best selling lots from our final auction day of the year

December 10th was one of those unusual auction days when two sales took place on the same day. In the morning Richard Hughes took to the rostrum to sell the final auction of Colwyn Bay's 2024 schedule. 

The auction of Gifts including high-end music equipment, jewellery, fine art & collectables presented a fabulous opportunity for music enthusiasts to buy some excellent pre-owned kit before Christmas. Jewellery collectors were also spoilt with some stunning diamonds and gem-set jewellery. 

Later in the day, specialist Philip Keith took bids in Cardiff from all over the world in our third Out of Europe auction of 2024. As is often the case in these exciting auctions, there were some very pleasant surprises for the vendors.
