| Christopher Bragg Auctions |
| A LEADING MELBOURNE ANTIQUE AUCTION SPECIALIST |
Specializing in the sale of estates, our auctions are packed with a large variety of antiques, art, collectables, objects of virtue, tribal artifacts, coins & stamps, books, pre-loved quality household furniture & white goods.
Established in 1995, 5 years later we moved in to our permanent rooms at 619 Canterbury Road and rapidly became a leading Melbourne antique auction house.
We are open between 10am & 4pm Tuesday to Friday, and from 10am to 1.00pm on Saturdays for collections, deliveries and advice, excepting the week of an auction when viewing times apply.
Antique, art & general auctions are usually held on the last Sunday of the month commencing at 11am unless otherwise advertised.
Special auctions are held periodically and will be advertised in the press as well as on the website.
Valuations are undertaken. In addition to the auction service we offer a range of valuation services. For formal written valuations in respect of insurance, probate & family division a fee will be charged. Verbal appraisals are generally free of charge. You may choose to show us photo's or, where convenient, bring your items to the rooms. Where travel is involved, a fee may be incurred.
Staffed by experienced members with a long history in antiques, arts and pre-loved treasured items. Their accumulated knowledge spans some decades. However, we recognise that the subject is a very broad one and from time to time this knowledge is supplemented by a team of consultants who are called upon to assist with the rarer and more un-usual.
