On 20 November 1992 a fire broke out in Windsor Castle. It destroyed 115 rooms, including nine State Rooms.

The fire started in Queen Victoria's Private Chapel, where a faulty spotlight ignited a curtain next to the altar, spreading to St George's Hall next door. 

The fire was first spotted around 11:30 in the morning and within three hours 225 firefighters from seven counties were battling the flames. 

At the peak of the operation they were using 36 pumps, the fire was finally extinguished at 2:30am on Saturday, 21 November.

The auction aims to generate as much interest and cash as possible.

The cost of producing the item (which will always be a one of the kind)  is not recovered from the sale and 100% of the money raised is available for the charity of choice, usually named by the purchaser. 

There is however a minimum bid, which is the price cited as a starting point, so come on, place your bid.
