Victorian and Edwardian clothes
I recently arranged for a number of Victorian and Edwardian clothes to be sent for valuation and sale to Notty Hornblower at Etwall Derbyshire. Her expertise and excellent catalogue description, along with her enthusiasm and knowledge, ensured that their sale was very successful.

Hansons lost my 2 lithographs (which were not small) for almost one year!. I enquired after 2 months and the search began and eventually they were found and put into one of their auction days. I received £5 and was very disappointed.

First time auction user
This is the first time I have used an Auction House and I was impressed from the very first meeting to the auction itself.
I felt the valuations were fair and the whole process and communications were friendly and straightforward. So much so, that I went home looking for more items to be valued!
All but one item were sold and that will go into the next auction.
I would not hesitate to recommend Hansons in Newark to anyone and would like to thank them for a great experience.

WELL RUN PROFESSIONAL ORGANISATION
I found Hansons a well run professional organisation with friendly and helpful staff. The only thing that stopped me giving them 5 stars was that I found they were a bit slow in paying out compared with another firm of auctioneers I have used.
