Valuation events

Although our specialists are able to estimate the appraise of your property from photographs and descriptions, a more accurate appraisal requires seeing the object(s) first hand. Bonhams' appraisal days, as listed below, offer the opportunity to get your item(s) valued in person by one of our specialists.

Once your property has been inspected, we can provide you with an estimate of what the item(s) are likely to realize at auction and advise you of the most appropriate sale. Verbal auction appraisals are provided free of charge.
