Walker's

Biography

Walker's Fine Art & Estate Auctioneers is one of Canada's oldest and most established auction houses. Our Ottawa based firm was founded in 1937 by William S. Walker, who decided that Canada's federal capital was an ideal location given the city's sophisticated international image and rich cultural heritage.

Today we maintain a reputation as a trusted and important regional auction house with a progressive global outlook, based on decades of providing impeccable service and premium quality art to our domestic and international clients.

The comprehensive range of services that we provide includes expertise in the appraisal and sale of Canadian and European paintings, carpets, silver, clocks, sculpture, fine furniture and decorative arts.

We offer our clients two distinctly different venues for the sale and acquisition of Fine Art, Antiques, and Collectibles.

Bi-monthly Estate Auctions featuring 19th and 20th century furniture, porcelain, figurines, carpets, silver, and plated wares allow unique opportunities to acquire quality items between $50 and $2500 per lot. Our International Fine Art & Auctions, held each Spring and Autumn, include premium quality Canadian, European, and American paintings, furniture, silver, and decorative arts. Illustrated catalogues are available to prospective buyers, contact us for catalogue information.
