Mid Century

You can get a free valuation three ways: visit our saleroom Monday to Friday (8:30am-4:30pm) or at our valuation mornings every other Saturday, send photos via WhatsApp for the fastest response, or submit an online request with photos and a description. For larger pieces of furniture or full collections, we can also arrange a home visit. One of the team responds within one working day, with no obligation to consign.

We sell Danish teak furniture, Scandinavian design and British mid-century classics from makers including Ercol and G Plan, alongside period lighting, studio pottery and retro textiles. We also handle full house clearances, estates and probate collections featuring mid-century pieces, from a single sideboard to the entire contents of a property.

Our fee structure is simple: a £5 + VAT lotting fee per item for furniture, or £1.50 + VAT for smaller mid-century pieces such as lighting or ceramics, plus 18% + VAT commission on the hammer price. For example, £1,000 worth of mid-century furniture sold would net you £784 after commission, excluding the lotting fee. There’s never a charge for the initial valuation, whether or not you go ahead.

Once your items sell and all buyers have settled their invoices, we process payment by bank transfer within 21 days of the sale ending.

Sideboards, chests of drawers, bedside cabinets, cocktail cabinets, dining suites, armchairs, daybeds, sofas, and lamps and lighting all sell well.

Yes. Pieces that need work still sell, although we usually offer them without reserves to reflect the fact that restoration can be costly.

We are unable to accept beds and mattresses, modern furniture and sofas, white goods, general household goods, or low-end modern items. Electrical goods are only accepted if they are of good quality and PAT tested, or of collector’s value. If you are not sure, send us a photo and we will tell you.
