Sworders was delighted to welcome both new and familiar faces at the Valuation Day in September - uncovering stories, sharing expertise, and offering guidance on selling at auction, with several exciting consignments now on their way to future sales!
After the warm reception of the first event, the team from Sworders - including specialists from Design, Pictures, Jewellery, and Interiors - will return to the Britten Studio on Wednesday 11 February 2026. The day begins at 11am with a talk by Matthew Yeats, Head of Design - Composing Taste: How Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears Designed Their World (free to all to attend).

Ample parking will be available close to the Britten Studio and Hoffmann Foyer, with refreshments served throughout the day.
