✨Ahead of tomorrow’s first viewing of our final Fine Jewellery, Silver & Watches auction of the year, we’ve invited the team to share their favourite lots from the sale and why they’ve caught their eye.

From a charming George II silver waiter and a wonderfully intricate George III pocket watch to an exquisite Art Deco emerald and diamond brooch, a rather characterful enamelled duckling and an Indian Maharajah’s emerald and diamond turban brooch, the choices are as individual as the people behind them.

Some are drawn to exceptional craftsmanship, others to a particular period, a personal memory or simply the beauty of an object.

💙 Discovering Lalique: A Highlight from our Upcoming Single-Owner Collection…

We are delighted to share a highlight from our upcoming single-owner collection of Lalique, due to be offered in our 17th March 2027 Fine & Decorative Arts auction.

🪻This beautiful example is René Lalique’s ‘Bulbes’ pattern dish, c. 1935. We particularly love how the opalescent glass produces a delicate play of light against the relief decoration.

✨Signed ‘R. Lalique’ this iconic piece of French Art Deco design carries an estimate of £200-400.

Have something similar tucked away at home? 🏡 Our Specialists welcome you for free, no-obligation valuations every Tuesday and Thursday, 10am–4pm, at our Chislehurst saleroom. No appointment necessary!

📖 There and Back Again: A collectible literary classic.

First published in 1937, J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, or There and Back Again remains one of the most sought-after works of 20th-century fantasy literature. With an original print run of just 1,500 copies, which remarkably sold out within three months, its place in literary collecting history is well established.

This week’s is the 8th impression, and will be coming to auction on 19th May 2027, offered alongside a second edition set of The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Together, the volumes carry a guide price of £400–£500…certainly an appealing opportunity for collectors of J.R.R. Tolkien, classic literature and fantasy fiction!

Have you got a favourite literary classic?
