Paintings, Furniture, Porcelain, Silver and Collectables from the Collection of Drs. Bryan and Winifred Alton.
We are honoured to present this very special collection for auction, the fruit of two lives’ worth of collecting. It has been a joy for us here at Adam’s to handle such a hugely interesting and diverse range of rare and collectable objects and we hope that new and appreciative homes will be found for all these precious things which gave the Altons such pleasure over a very long period of time.
