What Is Treasure Finder?

Treasure Finder is a free tool that creates custom auction notifications tailored to your interests.

Instead of browsing hundreds—or thousands—of lots, you’ll be shown items that match your:

  • Preferred categories (e.g. jewellery, watches, fine art, antiques)

  • Specific sub-categories and item types

  • Budget or price range

  • Keywords such as artists, brands, or materials

It’s a faster, more intelligent way to discover and buy at auction worldwide.
