I contacted Antiques Vault for a valuation and received it within minutes! I found Michael to be very knowledgeable and had discovered further information about my pieces (some original children’s illustrations) that would probably have taken me hours to google. Michael offered to contact collectors and put the items in an auction, providing an efficient service, taking care of all the details and promoting the sale to get the best possible price. Who knew accessing the world of antiques and collectibles could be so easy? I can’t fault Antiques Vault for providing a personal and trustworthy service. Thanks!

Excellent service. We sent in what we thought was nice costume jewellery but after inspection turned out to be the real thing! Antique Vault managed to get us a great sale price and quickly, very happy.

Using Antique Vault was an excellent experience. Michael was very professional and displayed real subject matter expertise. I felt comfortable that I got a fair and honest evaluation which was very competitive compared to the insurance price. This was completed in a very timely manner. I would absolutely recommend to others and will use again!

We had a grandfather clock in the office that had been previously valued at a not-insignificant sum and subsequently insured accordingly, we were looking at re-insuring the item or selling it and wanted a second opinion on its value. Michael and Antique Vault had been recommended to us, so we contacted him. He was prompt in coming back to us and extremely detailed in letting us know what he needed to be able to perform the valuation virtually. We found him to be very knowledgeable, helpful, and reassuring across the process. The valuation wasn't as we had hoped, but did confirm our suspicions that the clock was over-insured. We decided to keep the clock in the end, but I would definitely recommend Micheal to anyone looking for a valuation, advice on antiques or indeed to help sell items.
