Our story
An independent auction house since 2001
SWPAuction began in a single Springfield saleroom with one auctioneer, two specialists and a table of family silver. Twenty-five years on we hold more than forty sales a year, live in the room and online, and still answer the phone ourselves.
Every lot is researched, photographed and catalogued in house. Every estimate is written by the specialist who will stand behind it, and every attribution is guaranteed for five years after the sale.

What buyers and consignors say
They catalogued my late father’s watch collection with real care. The sale beat the high estimate on almost every lot, and every step was explained.
Margaret EllisConsignor, Watches & Clocks
Bidding online felt as personal as being in the saleroom. The condition reports were honest and the specialist called me back within the hour.
Daniel BrooksCollector, Old Masters
From the first photograph to the hammer price, I always knew where my ceramics were and what the fees would be. No surprises at all.
Priya AnandConsignor, Ceramics
Packing and insured shipping to Edinburgh was handled for me. The marble bust arrived in better shape than I could have managed myself.
Thomas ReidBuyer, Sculpture
The free valuation was thorough and came with no pressure to sell. When I did consign, the result was well above what I expected.
