A great opportunity to bring along your items and have them valued by an expert. Chorley’s has chosen Gloucestershire Historic Churches Trust as its Charity of the Year so now is the perfect time to see what's hiding in the back of the cupboard, up in the attic or tucked away in a drawer. That piece of jewellery you've inherited, the old painting you've always wondered about, the silver that's never used or the collectables gathering dust could be more interesting, and more valuable, than you think.
Bring along your antiques, jewellery, silver, ceramics, collectables, pictures, books or other interesting items and receive a free expert valuation from a Chorley's specialist. All items valued above £100 can be sent to auction. Following your valuation, the choice is entirely yours. You are welcome to simply take your item home or, if you decide to sell it through Chorley's, it can be entered into a special charity auction taking place in early November. If you choose to sell, you decide what percentage of the final sale price you would like to donate to Gloucestershire Historic Churches Trust. You can donate 25%, 50%, 75% or even 100% of the proceeds, allowing you to support a good cause while still receiving a share of the sale if you wish.
It's a wonderful opportunity to uncover hidden treasures, clear some space at home and help protect Gloucestershire's historic churches for future generations.
Refreshments will be sold in aid of the church.
