SALES REPORT FOR THE TWO DAY AUCTION HELD ON 17th AND 18th
NOVEMBER 2016.
THE SALE INCLUDED JEWELLERY, SILVER AND PLATE, FURNITURE, CERAMICS,
COLLECTABLES, CLOCKS, PICTURES AND PAINTINGS.
Rendells November sale
was based around three main house clearances and featured a large
selection of antique and later furniture, collectables and jewellery.
The sale was very well viewed and attended, with furniture prices
continuing to improve. The uncertainty surrounding the financial market
and a weaker pound was reflected in the prices paid for solid silver and
gold items as people look to safe haven investments for there money.
Our last sale of the year on 14th and 15th
December will include a small selection of Christmas Jewellery. You are
cordially invited to join us for a mince pie or two and a last chance to
pick up a special or unusual gift for a loved one. Next year will see
Rendells offering an online bidding platform. Please contact the
salerooms for details.
