Year-End Antique Auctions Heat Up Across Platforms
Antiques auction hero banner

The auction calendar is packed with end‑of‑year events, many of which close within a week of each other. The earliest deadline is the Cadmore Boxing Day Automatic Auction on, where bidders can snap up a mixed lot of antique items ranging from Asian pieces to vintage designer goods. Following that, the Find Estate Sales Meadow Lane auction wraps up on December 27, 2025, offering a curated selection of antique trinkets and regional curiosities. December 28 sees two notable closures: the Native American auction hosted in Irvine, which ends at 3 PM, and the Meadow Lane estate sale preview, both highlighting antique furnishings and decorative objects. On December 29, Lot‑tissimo’s timed sales conclude, featuring antique jewellery, designer items, and Asian antiques, while the Claydon Auctioneers’ Antiques, Collectables, Paintings & Prints auction (previewed on December 29) also ends that day, showcasing a broad spectrum of antique works. The final pre‑new‑year deadline arrives on December 30, 2025, with several auctions finishing simultaneously: the Claydon General Goods & Chattels auction, the East Bristol Decorative Interiors sale, and the Columbia City Products online auction, each emphasizing antique furniture, ceramics, and household pieces. A December 31 online auction from Eastern Shore rounds out the year, presenting antique household goods and a few vintage vehicles.

Looking ahead, January 2026 brings a fresh wave of activity. Bellmans Auction House launches a multi‑day program beginning with a silver auction, followed by watches, jewellery, carpets, decorative objects, furniture, European ceramics, and pictures & prints, all centered on high‑quality antique pieces. Shortly after, the Strawser Auction Group’s Midwest series continues with estate‑focused antique sales, while the Bellmans schedule is complemented by specialized antique events at venues such as the Auctioneum Ltd and the Antique Vintage Flea Markets.

A clear trend emerges: sellers are leveraging both live rooms and online platforms like LiveAuctioneers and Invaluable to reach a global audience, while buyers appreciate the convenience of timed online sales that close within a few days. Estate consignments dominate the listings, reflecting a seasonal push to liquidate family holdings before the new year. Overall, the market is vibrant, with a steady flow of antique items across categories such as furniture, ceramics, clocks, and textiles, ensuring ample opportunity for collectors and newcomers alike.
