Eric Knowles, antiques expert
Meet Eric Knowles

One of Britain's best-known antiques experts

With over four decades of experience, including more than 35 years on some of the UK's most loved antiques programmes, Eric brings unrivalled knowledge of ceramics, silver, jewellery and the wider antiques market to every valuation we make.

Eric's View
"Many of the most interesting items we see aren't pristine collections, they're everyday pieces tucked away and forgotten."
"A good valuation isn't just about the metal. It's about the history, the maker, and the story behind the piece."
"People are often surprised by what their inherited jewellery is really worth. That's why we look at every piece individually."
"Trust is earned with honesty. We tell you what something is worth, not what we'd like to pay for it."
