Del Boy’s Only Fools Bar Heads to Auction Next Week With £500–£600 Guide

Auctioneers expect nostalgia-fuelled interest to lift bidding beyond the guide.

Overview

  • Fieldings Auctioneers will sell the freestanding wraparound bar in Stourbridge on 25 September.
  • The lot carries a £500–£600 estimate, with specialists predicting a four-figure result.
  • Provenance includes a handwritten receipt dated 19 January 1992 stating it was used on the Only Fools and Horses set and naming J. Williams and S. P. Haberfield.
  • The Italian-made Mascagni Mobili piece measures roughly 107cm by 106cm and was a fixture in the Trotters’ flat, often paired with a gold pineapple ice bucket.
  • A comparable bar signed by David Jason sold for about £3,800 in 2012, and this example is thought to be one of three or four used for the show.
