MITCHELL ROAD AUCTION HOUSE

This warehouse is a treasure trove of second-hand goods. You might find everything from kitchenalia to vintage clothing, although inevitably some weeks are better than others. The mood is light and social at weekend inspections, where the doors are open to the public on Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 5pm and a huge presentation of goods lies ripe for the picking. Included among the displays are antiques, mid-century design, office and garden furniture, electrical goods, hardware, bikes and much more. Other regular auctions include bric-a-brac, quality china, Australiana, collectables, affordable art, early tools, musical instruments and jewellery. Visit the upstairs antique and design gallery for collectables from the 1950s through to the ’80s. Call or visit the website for dates and details of upcoming auctions.
