The Weird and the Wonderful
From a wooden harlequin of Tony Blair to a glass fish and a Louis Vuitton cigar case, the weird and the wonderful are going under the hammer at an auction in Gloucester.
Chorley’s was founded in 2006 by Simon Chorley and the Fine Art department from Bruton Knowles, Gloucestershire’s leading firm of auctioneers, surveyors and property consultants. John Harvey, previously in charge of Sotheby’s West Country office, joined Chorley’s team in 2009. The Chorley’s team provides considerable experience and expertise and strives to uphold the traditions of integrity, honesty and professionalism much valued by the firm’s private clients and by professional referrers from the art, legal, insurance, property asset and banking professions.
