About Us

Founded in 1759, Dreweatts is a leading UK fine art auction house with a truly global reach.

With salerooms at the picturesque Donnington Priory in Berkshire and a gallery at the centre of London's art district on Pall Mall, Dreweatts was named the UK's leading 'regional' auction house in 2021 and 2022 (source: Antiques Trade Gazette) and is a member of the Gurr Johns group of international art advisory businesses.

Comprising twenty-two departments and market-leading experts covering all disciplines, we hold over 70 specialist auctions a year offering items for the home (furniture, mirrors, lighting, carpets, clocks, traditional and modern art, sculpture and ceramics) as well as luxury items such as jewellery, silver, watches and wine.

The team is passionate about helping private collectors and decorators furnish and source unique and special pieces and has become a market leader for single-owner sales, putting collections and works of historic interest importance at the centre of their focus.
