Our Departments
At Bearnes Hampton & Littlewood, we are proud to have the largest team of experienced
fine art specialists in the West Country. Staffed by our own full time experts and
a number of key consultants assisted by several junior valuers we can provide advice
across all the principle fields as well as an increasingly important number of niche
disciplines.
This coupled with an extensive fine art reference library, our own computer databases
compiled from some fifty annual auction sales and a number of specialist Internet
programmes means we can assist owners with the accurate identification of their
art, antiques and collections.
We also have historical relationships with a number of London auction houses, and
a reliable association with several key local and national Museums, Art Galleries
and a number of academic authorities which provide both a useful resource for research
as well as a broader market place.
All of our fine art experts utilise their knowledge outside of work either in the
writing of articles, are members of specialist research bodies or provide assistance
to a number of important local organisations.
