JEWELLERY IN HIGH DEMAND AT HANNAM’S AUCTION

Hannam’s Fine Art Auctioneers once again proved that selling silver, gold and jewellery at their specialist auction can prove profitable for the consignors. If you were looking to make the most out of your items, then Hannam’s of Selborne is the place to visit. With an incredibly strong global client base for jewellery and watches you would be unwise to visit anywhere else… unless you were also looking for second-hand kitchen appliances. With over a decade of experience and fourteen specialist fine art auctions every year, Hannam’s provide a professional service for free valuations along with the opportunity to consign items for their global audience.

The star of their latest auction was a beautiful George III diamond riviere necklace, striking a near identical to the necklace worn by Queen Elizabeth II at her Coronation. Consigned locally by a family who saw the recent advert in the Meon Valley News, the wonderfully rare piece sold for £8,500 to a London collector via a telephone bid.

Another Rolex, this time a boxed Submariner, was purchased by a collector for £6,000 on one of Hannam’s three online bidding platforms, along with a vintage Omega Seamaster for £3,600 that was only estimated at £300.

With strong sales in the clocks and wristwatches at Hannam’s in the last twelve months, we recommend the free valuation service offered, and the 0% sellers commission for all watches consigned for Hannams specialist monthly auctions.

Hannam’s can also assist by providing a comprehensive professional probate valuation of an estate. They can take the worry out of your hands by helping you value an estate and settle the affairs. Their valuers will provide a professional researched detailed report following an appointment to attend the estate. Some insurers may require or recommend that you have a professional valuation document to support any claims for an item, should something unexpected happen and Hannam’s Auctioneers can offer these insurance valuations. Alternatively, you may wish for a formal valuation of items in your home to ensure you apply the correct insurance policy via the right provider.

Throughout the year Hannam’s will be hosting specialist auctions in between their three-day monthly auctions. These will be available to view the day before and the morning of the sale, and as always, online. The next auctions shall be a two-day auction on 24th March, followed by a three-day auction on 20th, 21st & 22nd April. For free valuations and consignment entries please visit their Selborne saleroom, or for further information please visit the website www.hannamsauctioneers.com or call the office on 01420511788.
