Charterhouse Auctioneers have just celebrated 25 years of auctioneering in Sherborne with a run of five auctions in five days.

“It was a great way to celebrate our silver anniversary with the five auctions totalling just a few pounds shy of £420,000 on the hammer.” Commented Richard Bromell. “Bidding over the week of auctions was fast and furious, with a single owner medal collection of nearly 300 lots being a white glove sale where every lot sold.”

However, there is no rest for the Charterhouse Crew as they are straight on to working towards their first auctions in the New Year with pictures, prints and books followed by textiles and the contents of a seamstress studio on Thursday 2nd January, and then Decorative Arts, antiques and interiors on Friday 3rd January, for which they are still accepting entries.

Richard Bromell and the Charterhouse Team can be contacted for home visits, advice and valuations on single items, collections and complete house contents at The Long Street Salerooms, Sherborne, 01935 812277 or via rb@charterhouse-auction.com
