What People Say About Cape Ann Auction
I’ve had a great experience working with Walt.

Recently, I’ve been on the search to find a choice set of Mies van der Rohe Barcelona chairs to revitalize my living room. As you may be aware, a new set is prohibitively expensive, while the used market has beautiful vintage pieces that lay amongst a slew of fraudulent fakes.

Walt has been a patient, well-versed and helpful consultant in my journey to appropriately appraise and select a fine, genuine exemplar of MCM design.

One of the best auctions on the north shore! Its the only auction that is cash and carry on the north shore. This is always a fun auction, with all kinds of great finds and buys! Great auction for dealers, homeowners and interior decorator, and everyone in between!
Luke Bassett - North Shore MA
Walt is very honest, gets some interesting pieces for auction and runs a great business. Whether you are consigning, or buying at auction, you can do so with confidence.
Martin Willis - Rockland Maine

Scott Morrill - Dover NH
When a dear friend of mine passed away and as Executrix of her estate, I needed to clean out her apartment. I called on Walt who I happened to know. He was exceedingly kind and helpful to me in this endeavor. I would recommend him to anyone.
Suzanne Silveira - Gloucester MA
Walt has impeccable values, and a wonderful business sense. He has been a known member of our community for over a decade, and when I need items taken care of, he is who I recommend most and who I use most. Thanks Walt for making the cleaning out process as pleasant as it could be!
