  Established in 1995 Christopher Bragg Auctions moved in to its permanent rooms at 619 Canterbury Road 5 years later and soon became the leading auction house in Melbourne's South Eastern suburbs.
  
  Specializing in the sale of estates, our auctions are packed with a large variety of antiques, art, collectables, objects of virtue, tribal artifacts, coins & stamps, books, pre-loved quality household furniture & white goods.
  
  Staffed by experienced members with a long history in antiques, arts and pre-loved treasured items. Their accumulated knowledge spans some decades. However, we recognise that the subject is a very broad one and from time to time this knowledge is supplemented by a team of consultants who are called upon to assist with the rarer and more un-usual.
  
  The core team is:
  
  Christopher Bragg - Partner, Auctioneer, Valuer
  
  Simon Lovett - Manager, Auctioneer

  - smaller consignments can be brought to the rooms for appraisal or you may wish to provide a photo
  
  - each item is individually appraised, sorted and catalogued to favour the best outcome

  - auctions are held at the weekends to suit the public, collectors & dealers to achieve the highest attendance and resultant higher prices
  
  - the auctions are broadly advertised in the press and targeted specifically at private collectors, dealers & compulsive auction attendees
  
  - we operate our web page for the benefit of our regular buyers and as a way to further promote sales
  
  - our data base contains a large e-mail subscriber list and emails are sent in advance for the forthcoming attractions.
