Sculpture can be highly sought-after — particularly works by known artists or those with strong aesthetic appeal. Bronze figures, marble busts, mid-century abstracts, and modern studio works regularly attract competitive bidding at auction. We also see strong interest in garden sculpture, animalier bronzes, and pieces with an exhibition or gallery history. Not sure about yours? Just ask — we’re happy to help.
Selling sculpture with Dawsons is simple and secure. Start by submitting photos and information via our easy online form. Once we’ve assessed your piece, if it's suitable for auction, we’ll provide a free valuation and discuss your options.

The value of a sculpture depends on several factors — including the artist, material, size, condition, and provenance. A signed bronze by a celebrated artist can fetch thousands, while an unsigned decorative piece may have more modest value. At Dawsons, our specialists offer free valuations to help you understand your sculpture’s worth in today’s market. Simply upload a few photos and details, and we’ll provide expert insight with no obligation to sell.
Buyers are particularly drawn to sculptures by well-known and established artists, especially those with a strong exhibition history or auction record. Modern British names like Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, David McFall, and Elisabeth Frink are consistently sought after, as are contemporary sculptors working in bronze or mixed media. If your sculpture is signed or has provenance, it could be of significant interest — our experts can help identify the artist and advise on current market demand.
