Mission to discover local treasures at 2025 valuations

 
28/01/2025 @ 11:09

 

Ever wondered how much a family heirloom is worth or whether items stored away in your loft or cupboard have any value?

Could a piece of jewellery or silver, a painting, an example of Asian pottery, an item of militaria, an old book, a stamp album or a coin collection, that has been in the family for generations, be a hidden gem?

The answers to all these questions and more will be available when a team of specialists from Halls Fine Art, a leading regional fine art auction house based in Shrewsbury, hits the road for a series of free antiques valuation days this year.

The team is holding events across Shropshire but will be coming across the border for a visit to Montgomery.

That’s in addition to four Saturday free valuations events at Halls’ headquarters in Shrewsbury and specialist weekday sessions. The free Saturday valuation events, which were trialled last year, will be held on February 8, May 10, August 9 and November 8 from 10am to 3pm.

The fine art specialists will be visiting Montgomery Town Hall on February 6, April 3, June 5, August 7, October 2 and December 4 from 10am to 2pm.

Anyone planning to attend the valuation events is asked to contact Halls Fine Art on 01743 450700 to book an appointment. Anyone wishing to have collections or large antiques valued at any of the events may take along photographs to show the specialists.
