Silver & Jewellery
We handle the sale of all jewellery and silver, from fine and valuable gems to costume
jewellery, from Georgian to contemporary.
Items of silver and silver plate appear at auction in every weekly Home Contents sale
and include tea services, cakebaskets, flatware and objects of art. The finest, rarest and
earliest examples of silver will tend to grace Art & Antiques or Silver & Jewellery
auctions.
Almost every auction at McTear's includes jewellery, though the more expensive and
exclusive pieces will appear in Art & Antiques auctions or Fine Antiques auctions.
