Richard Winterton
Richard Winterton’s family have been auctioneers in Staffordshire since the mid nineteenth century. Auctioneering is in his blood, a highly specialised skill of which Richard is a true professional. Joining the family business from a young age, Richard has excelled and has now taken over the reigns. Along with his wife Janet, he is the proprietor of one of the most successful family run auctioneers in the UK. He has a particular interest in furniture.
Richard is also a celebrity, well known to many TV viewers through his ongoing appearances on programmes such as ‘Dickinson’s Real Deal’ and ‘Bargain Hunt’. He also carries out regular charity work such as talks and charity auctions.
Adrian Rathbone
The world of antique and collecting began for Adrian at the age of 12 when as a young entrepreneur he started buying and selling. A holiday work placement at Richard Winterton’s firm prompted a move to study the subject at degree level at Southampton. Adrian returned to work for Richard Winterton as junior valuer in 1999. He has progressed to become an Associate and now heads the highly successful Fine Art and Collectors departments. Whilst Adrian has a general all round knowledge, specific interests include the fine and decorative arts from the nineteenth to twentieth century.
Adrian has also appeared on TV and undertakes many talks and charitable events throughout the Midlands.
