What is the process and how does it work?

HOLTS will handle the entire transaction, from collection to sale, and the hammer price of your items will be donated on your behalf to The Gunmakers Trust. There are no fees for you as the vendor for this service. HOLTS will also help you navigate the licensing issues from the transfer and will make the entire process as easy and seamless as possible.

HOLTS hold regular valuation days throughout the UK. The days are hosted by experienced members of HOLTS staff, who will be able to tell you about the item you have brought along. Francis Pearce says, ‘we are always keen to hear about a family or related provenance; it is often of interest and can have a highly beneficial impact on the value’. Holts will then suggest a realistic catalogue estimate and reserve (if you are minded to sell) together with a likely hammer price’.
