About Us

Welcome to Lawrences of Crewkerne. As the current steward of this long-established business, I am proud to lead a firm built on generations of trust, expertise and a deep respect for the traditions of our profession. Lawrences has long been woven into the fabric of the West Country, and our commitment to honesty, craftsmanship and personal service remains at the heart of everything we do.

While we honour the heritage that has shaped us, we also embrace the opportunities of the modern auction world. Our sales now reach collectors across the globe through leading online platforms, allowing us to combine traditional expertise with contemporary technology to achieve exceptional results for our clients.

None of this would be possible without the remarkable team behind Lawrences. Their knowledge, dedication and genuine passion for their fields are what set us apart. From the first valuation to the final hammer, they approach each item with care, curiosity and respect, qualities that make a real difference to our clients’ experiences and to the success of our sales.

We offer complimentary valuations and home visits throughout the West Country, whether you are considering the sale of a single item, a lifelong collection, or an entire estate. We also provide professional valuations for Probate and Insurance.

As Lawrences continues to evolve, my priority is to preserve the values that have defined us while leading the business confidently into the future. My team and I are always here to offer advice, support and the personal service that has earned Lawrences its reputation as one of the UK’s leading Fine Art Auctioneers.

Thank you for taking the time to visit us. We look forward to welcoming you to Crewkerne and to sharing the experience and enthusiasm that lie at the heart of Lawrences.
