Liz Poole FRICS and Lindsey Braune MRICS of the Cotswold Auction Company in Cheltenham and Cirencester will treat us to an insight into the working life of an auctioneer and valuer. Liz and Lindsey will conduct a mini Antiques Roadshow and will be happy to talk about and value items of jewellery, silver, ceramics, glass, small pictures, collectables and works of art (no wardrobes, please!). You are asked to bring along an item of interest which they will be able to talk about and value. Depending on time, we shall be limited to 30 – 40 items.
Liz and Lindsey have more than 55 years of experience between them and have worked in the Cotswolds for nearly 30 years, conducting regular specialist and fine art auctions and making the occasional appearance on TV. They have seen many changes over the years with the advent of the internet and will explain how real-time internet live bidding has changed the face of auctions today.
Venue: St. Matthew’s Church, Clarence Street, Cheltenham – opposite The Wilson
Time: Buffet lunch from 12 noon. Speaker 1.15- 2.15 pm Cost: £15; talk only £8
