E28 - The King’s Toast & The Suffragette Collection - with Isabel Murtough

Isabel Murtough, auctioneer and valuer extraordinaire joins Harry and Simon on the pod this week in the wake of the Hot Chip Challenge fallout. Izzy has just launched her brand new business, Isabel Murtough & Co which is designed to help the auction and antiques industry. Izzy tells us stories about selling a historical collection from the Suffragettes, being a woman on the rostrum, how she ended up with a bit of the King’s toast, and her live on air Victoria Regina slip up.

Now we know there are lots of TV shows about buying and selling antiques and collectables but we thought followers of this podcast would like to hear about what goes on behind the scenes of an actual working auction house as we go about our daily business, the characters we meet, the things we find, and the things we wished we had never found. Famed for our slightly different auctioneering style, constant chatting on the rostrum, awful jokes. Stick with us as we bunk off to record anecdotes, interview others in the industry and basically gabble on. If you enjoy the podcast, please leave us a rating.
