Having returned from the retail sector in 2000 I had, with help from my team, expanded the jewellery and silver departments turnover regularly every year, I also value watches, coins, medals and Art deco bronzes. I have extensive knowledge in antique and period jewellery and silver with over 30 years of experiance. Highlights in 2014 included a collection of watches and jewellery that realised over £500,000, the most impressive being a complicated gents Patek Philippe wristwatch at £220,000.I enjoy training new members of staff and take great pleasure from following their careers.In the last three years I have also taken my interest in the classic car and motorbike world to consigning some interesting and varied collections to our auctions; in 2013 I consigned a motorbike and classic car collection that realised over £250,000.I regularly took auctions, silver sales in Oxford and the memorabilia section of the Stafford motorbike auction, I have also sold in London and Edinburgh. I undertake charity auctions, particularly for the Isle of Man TT riders association.
