ABOUT US
Lacy Scott & Knight is an independent and long-established
firm of auctioneers & valuers and property professionals. We
have been selling antiques and works of art since 1869 in our
purpose-built Auction Centre situated in the heart of historic Bury
St Edmunds in Suffolk since the 1980s. We are one of the largest
salerooms in the East of England, holding a diverse range of
specialist and general sales throughout the year.
Lacy Scott & Knight has achieved a
number of record-breaking and notable prices, including setting a
UK provincial auction record in 1999 when we sold a pair of Sevres
vases for £500,000. This record has since been broken numerous
times by other provincial auctioneers as the power of the internet
has allowed us to compete with major London auction houses. Recent
prices of note include £130,000 achieved for a Chinese Qianlong
Period carved zitan Ruyi sceptre, sold in December 2010, and a
Chinese cloisonne champleve enamel bowl, which sold for £72,000 in
September 2011.
Lacy Scott & Knight prides itself
on combining high levels of expertise and professionalism with a
traditional friendly attitude and personal service that our clients
have come to expect from this established company. We are
long-standing members of the Royal Institution of Chartered
Surveyors (RICS) and the Society of Fine Art Auctioneers &
Valuers (SOFAA).
Our opening hours are Monday-Friday 9am-5.30pm (excluding Bank
Holidays). For Saturday sale days only, we are open 8.45am-4pm.
