We are well known regionally for our eclectic sales catering for a broad range of tastes and budgets. The team at Dore & Rees are developing this signature format and have launched these sales online for more browsers and buyers to enjoy.

Defined by their difference, no two interiors auctions are ever the same. They are the ultimate destination to get that buzz of discovery – you really never know what you might find. Perfect for those looking to furnish their home, buy something unique, or be inspired by the unexpected, this is a great starting place for those new to auction.

Many of us are growing tired with mainstream disposable furniture and generic mass-produced design. For the sustainably conscious, our sales are an affordable way to buy quality furniture and interiors from key design periods, often hand-crafted and certainly built to last.

Request auction estimate

We offer free auction estimates by email or by appointment. Guy will review your items and provide you with an indication of the guide value at which Dore & Rees believe the item would be offered for sale.

Please send us an email with good quality photographs, dimensions, history, provenance and known background. Alternatively, do give us a call to discuss your item.

GUY TAYLER

Guy has lived and breathed Dore & Rees all his working life, starting out as a porter in the 1990s. Quickly learning every aspect of auction house operations, Guy has been running Dore & Rees’ bi-monthly auctions from start to finish alongside Mark Rees for many years.

One of his most memorable moments is selling an antique Asian sewing box, originally received in a carrier bag in poor state of repair and ultimately selling significantly beyond its expectations - in front of a wowed audience.

Guy is well known by Dore & Rees clients and he will be instrumental ensuring a smooth transition for buyers and sellers, old and new, through this year's exciting transformation.
