About

In the ever-shifting world of design and collecting, Lots Road Auctions remains a pillar of taste and trust.

Established in 1979 in Chelsea, the auction house quickly became a magnet for interior designers, collectors, and aesthetes with an eye for the extraordinary. Its appeal lies in a finely tuned mix of discretion, market knowledge, and curatorial flair.

Now located in the iconic Piper Building in Fulham, Lots Road’s new 30,000-square-foot home is more than just a showroom—it’s an immersive gallery. Here, 18th-century furniture sits comfortably alongside 20th-century design classics, contemporary artworks share space with rare objets d’art. The result is a space—and a catalogue—that feels both curated and alive.

Live auctions are held throughout the month, while ongoing online carousel sales ensure a constant influx of fresh pieces. The showroom is open every day for viewings, and all catalogues are available to view online.

For those selling, Lots Road offers complimentary, obligation-free valuations. Whether it’s a mid-century icon, a piece of fine jewellery, or a family heirloom, each item is assessed with care and expertise.

More than a marketplace, Lots Road is a destination—where the beautiful, the storied, and the rare find new life in the hands of discerning buyers. In a world of trends, it offers timeless appeal with a modern edge.
