Silver Rush: Estate and Bullion Auctions Heat Up This December
Silver auction hero banner

Collectors can chase a variety of silver this week, beginning with two sales that close today. The‑saleroom’s timed "Silver & Bijouterie" auction and Unique Auctions’ "Christmas Antiques & Collectors" sale both feature decorative silver pieces, from vintage flatware to ornate candlesticks, and will finish before the day ends.

The next opportunity arrives this Sunday when Bullock Auction House wraps its "Sunday Evening Bullion" event. Bidders will see a mix of government‑minted silver eagles, historic silver dollars and assorted bullion bars, all priced for serious investors. The following Sunday, Harris Estate Services runs its Tryon Fox Run Estate online auction, which adds estate‑level silverware and heirloom pieces to the mix, highlighting the continued demand for both collectible and functional silver.

Saturday brings two parallel live sales. David Lay FRICS presents an "Antiques, Silver, Jewellery & Collectables" auction, showcasing refined silver serving trays, tea sets and period flatware alongside jewellery. At the same time, Chorley’s "Christmas Auction" offers a festive selection of silver ornaments and tableware, underscoring the seasonal appeal of the metal.

Mid‑December, the Bath venue of Auctioneers of Bristol & Bath will close its dedicated "Antique and 20th‑Century Silver" auction, featuring everything from Edwardian tea services to Art Deco silver candlesticks. Finally, the second week of December sees Owens Auctions Dallas host its "Yuletide Splendor" sale, where a standout L.C. Tiffany silver candlestick set joins a broader estate collection of fine silver objects.

Across these events, a clear trend emerges: silver is moving between two worlds—investment‑grade bullion for the serious collector and decorative, heritage pieces for the home‑decor enthusiast. Whether bidding online or attending a live preview, buyers have a full spectrum of silver to choose from before the month ends.
