A team of leading Norfolk antiques experts will be on hand at Sharrington Village Hall on Saturday 8th October, giving people the chance to get their family heirlooms valued during an Antiques Roadshow style event which will be raising money for the village’s church.
A team from Keys Auctioneers and Valuers in Aylsham, described by leading industry publication Antiques Trade Gazette as a ‘Top Tier’ UK auction house, are lending their expertise for the event.
The experts from Keys will be on hand from 10am until 3pm to assess all sorts of antiques, fine art and collectables. The antiques specialists will be offering appraisals and valuations for ceramics, glassware, oriental items, furniture, paintings, books & ephemera, jewellery, silver, clocks and watches.
Up to three items per person can be assessed at a cost of £3 each. With the experts giving their time for free, all of the proceeds will go towards the upkeep of Sharrington Church, parts of which date back to the 14th century.
“This is a great chance to quiz some of the region’s foremost experts about your family heirlooms,” said David Broom of Keys, one of those who will be providing their expertise on the day. “People will be able to discover more about their items, as well as receiving an assessment of what they might make at auction.
“Whether you are considering selling your items, or are simply curious about what they are, this is the opportunity to receive an expert appraisal, while helping us to raise money for a great cause as well.”
Anyone seeking a valuation can simply turn up between 10am and 3pm on the day to have their items assessed and valued. Refreshments will be available and there is plenty of parking.
