Bonhams to Offer Iconic Outlander Memorabilia and Costumes

Bonhams's upcoming 'Outlander: The Auction' features remarkable television history. Highlighting the catalog is a collection of fifteen painted panels for Geillis's Still Room set, capturing the eerie atmosphere of the early episodes. For collectors of grander staging, a set of four panelled doors designed for the King Louis Versailles apartment set offers a physical piece of the show's French court era. Wardrobe highlights include a toile of 'The Red Dress', worn by Claire.

This upcoming event follows several notable auctions at Bonhams. In July, the house presented A Life in Ceramics: The Peter and Mary White Collection of Chinese Art, Part IV, which achieved £208,205. That same month, Modern British and Irish Art brought in £759,501, while Travel & Exploration realized £532,966.

For industry professionals, the collectibles category represents a major sector, with $20,965,812 realized across the market this year and a strong average sell-through of 91.6%. While Sotheby's leads the category, Bonhams remains a key player. This upcoming sale is ranked as the house's # sale of 20 concluded this year. Across all its sales this year, Bonhams has achieved $18,496,614 in total value, with its year-to-date sterling total reaching £9,125,168 and maintaining a solid 82.4% sell-through.
