antiquity which we have sold are now held in museum collections and we work closely with museum curators ensuring that provenanced antiquities are recorded enabling future generations to have a greater understanding of our past. We have sold antiquities to the Museum of London, the City and County Museum in Lincoln and the the Rotterdam Museum to name a few. Our stock of antiquities includes many items from the
Celtic, Roman, Medieval and
Tudor periods as well as a good selection of early
