HOUSE SALES, PRIVATE & ICONIC COLLECTIONS
OUTSTANDING RESULTS
Whether from country houses, large estates, or private collectors, high profile single-owner auctions have always been at the heart of our business, and demand for these auctions is growing in popularity now more than ever. Collectors love the history behind the object or painting they are buying, and dedicated single-owner collection auctions provide that essential link with the item’s past. Our recent run of highly successful single owner sales proves this, with five such auctions achieving 100% sold rates, and doubling pre-sale expectations. All single owner collections are different, and our job is to listen to your requirements and create a sales strategy unique to your collection. Based in London but working closely with our international offices, our House Sales, Private & Iconic Collections department comprises senior directors with a wealth of experience across our 60 specialist categories. We handle the entire process from initial meeting right through to the auction itself, ensuring your vision and best interests are maintained throughout. The following pages demonstrate the fascinating breadth of collections that we have recently handled from English stately homes, European palazzo to Manhattan apartments and Beverly Hills mansions. Our goal is simple: to produce the most memorable and successful auction on your behalf, and to carry it out with great care, creativity and professionalism.

Entrusting Bonhams with the sale of the entire contents of Trelissick House was understandably a momentous decision for the family. Holding the auction at our home and selling the entire contents was the perfect solution to our requirements. Bonhams handled the sale with sensitivity and great professionalism and effectively used all their skills and knowledge to deliver an excellent result for us.

100% SOLD
Our family is very grateful to the entire team at Bonhams, both in London and Los Angeles, who were all a pleasure to work with. What at first felt to us like an overwhelming undertaking, was managed by Bonhams with professional ease, extreme sensitivity and a caring commitment to our needs from the start.
They listened to our vision for the sale, while also bringing their own creativity and expertise to the table, resulting in a tremendously successful auction. The outcome was a spectacular celebration of our mother's life and career, reflected in the stunning catalogue and Bonhams' energetic and detail orientated approach to every aspect of the process.”

Our family was very pleased with Bonhams’ process and grateful that they were so sensitive to our particular needs. Bonhams took the time to stay in contact with the family and our representatives while carefully examining and supervising what turned out to be quite an extensive collection. While the auction exceeded our family’s expectations, it was Bonhams personal touch that made the difference for us.
