10 years ago in
May 2011 I held my first auction under my own name as
an independent auctioneer...

My first auction on May 24th 2011 at the Queens Hotel, Penzance...

The catalogue for the first auction...only 156 lots but a start from nothing...

It was a huge success with my first four figure lot...a painting by Gill Watkiss... sold for £2,400...

After only 18 months, continued growing success led to a move into Trinty House & a permanent office & saleroom...

10 years & 82 auctions later... still going strong...

What would a cash buyer pay you for this collectable £380* Robertsons jam brooch?...

Selling directly to competing bidders at auction ensures you get a better price..

Online live auctions with Barbara Kirk Auctions offer the best chance of you receiving the true value for your items...

Our interest is in acheiving the best possible price for our clients... not the best possilble profit for ourselves...

We can offer your items to competetive bidding by hundreds of buyers locally, nationally & worldwide... for only 10% selling commission... & without a requirement for a 'profit margin'....

*After major pre-auction interest, this early & scarce Robertsons Blacurrent Jam promotional badge sold for £380 in our May 5th auction...less 10% plus VAT.

Special two-day auction this September will include a wide-ranging single-owner collection..

An eclectic group of items collected over many years...

Includes MARITIME pictures, artefacts, ship wreck souvenirs & finds etc... CORNISH INTEREST ITEMS including bygones, historical, commemorative & documentary items etc... DEEP SEA DIVING collectables...
