AFiG & Spink and Son Ltd
Trusted Trade Services
AFiG served as the representative for Spink and Son Ltd in Kuwait, during which time it provided trusted trade, investment, and international business services.
ALFEHAID INTERNATIONAL GROUP held the sole agency in the territory of Kuwait for Spink and Son Ltd (www.spink.com). Spink, established in London in 1666, was the world's premier collectables auction house, specializing in the auctioning and private sales of stamps, coins, banknotes, medals, bonds & shares, autographs, and books.
AFiG's mandate included the sole representation of Spink's special commission, which had over a century of experience advising Sovereigns and Heads of State on the design and manufacture of Orders, Decorations, and Medals. Spink created bespoke commemorative awards and presentation gifts and offered a service of mounting regulation medals and miniatures, alongside the supply of sashes and neck ribands. We also undertake the casing of a client's awards, from a single medal to a variety of collections.
In 1880 Spink entered the Medal manufacturing business with the purchase of the Soho Mint and in 1897 produced the commemorative medals for Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, being awarded its first Royal Warrant in 1900. Today we hold Warrants as Medallists to HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh.
