McTear's is one of the largest independent auction houses in the UK, with a market leading position in the sale of fine art, whisky and jewellery. Founded in 1842, the Glasgow based company has welcomed a host of high profile names over the years with legendary Scottish philanthropist, William Burrell, a frequent visitor to the auction house in earlier days. In more recent times McTear's has extended its reach, building an impressive database of buyers and sellers in more than XX countries across the globe. Whatever the item, sellers can be assured that their precious lot will be placed in front of those most likely to purchase, no matter where in the world they are. Whether buying or selling, McTear's advanced bidding system puts the customer at the heart of the process. The auction house has embraced digital technology and offers an advanced online bidding system through mctears.co.uk/live to complement the company's telephone and on site services. Under the guidance of an experienced team of specialists, McTear's three key departments have grown significantly over the years. The regular whisky auctions are now amongst the biggest in the world and include some of the rarest single malts on the planet. Recent high profile sales have included a 50 year old Macallan for over £20,000 and a record £6,000 for a bottle of GlenDronach signed by President Donald Trump.
