Have been to Denham auctions twice.
Both occasions have been very good.
As a collector and part time trader, although I live 56 miles away from Horsham, I shall continue visiting Denham auctions as they are the best I’ve seen...
Tidy, orderly, clean, well set out, courtesy shown by all staff, it’s far superior to my local auction houses in Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire..

A very friendly and efficient service achieving good prices.
Up until Denhams, everyone we had approached had been very disparaging about our items which included dinner and tea sets! No-one was interested, everyone told us they wouldn’t sell and talked down their value.
Although not local to us we chose Denhams because their website seemed to suggest that similar items could sell in their area. All items did sell and Denhams kept us informed throughout.
We recommend them very highly

Many thanks for your prompt and friendly service;
It's is always a pleasure to do business with Denhams.
Please pass on my thanks to your Silver expert (so sorry I don't know his name) for his input and advice on the silver two handled cup I looked at as well. I have purchased items from Denhams over a long period and can honestly recommend their auctions and post auctions sales.
