About us

Situated in the centre of the historic Cathedral City of Canterbury are the long established auction rooms of The Canterbury Auction Galleries.

A traditional auction house, we place great store on the core value of service to our vendors and buyers alike.

A sales calendar is produced each year, to include four specialist auctions of Fine Arts and Antiques, and these sales contain a selection of antique and quality furniture, ceramics and glassware, silver and jewellery, objets d'art and collectors' items, oil paintings, watercolours, prints and drawings, clocks and watches, and rugs and carpets.

Being a traditional auction house, we place great store on the core value of service to our vendors and buyers alike but, as technology plays an increasing part in our business, we have had to integrate this technology with tradition to improve all our services. Hence, we welcome you to our website.

Detailed, illustrated catalogues with estimated guide prices are produced for these auctions and can be purchased on the day of the Auction.

Supplementing these specialist sales are monthly auctions, which include a selection of Victorian, Edwardian and modern furniture, china, glassware, pictures and collectors' items, etc.

There are extensive viewing arrangements, including evenings, in our spacious well-lit galleries for all our sales.

We also specialise in the production of comprehensive written valuations for Insurance, Probate and Family Division purposes. In addition to making home visits, Valuation mornings are held most Fridays from 10am to 1pm and we invite you to bring along your antiques and collectors' items for a free appraisal as to their age, origin and potential sale room value.
