The Estates of James “Jimmy” Martin Hill Jr. and Madeline Hill, Houston, Texas
Mr. Hill was a prominent Houston, Texas developer and builder and long time partner of Perrin White. Hill and White had successful projects in Houston, New Orleans, Las Vegas and Austin. Having served in the United States Army during World War II, he maintained a passion for America and its ideals. The emphasis was on education, philanthropy and a hands-on relationship with the community. He was also interested in politics and Texas history. Reading and hiking were two of his greatest pleasures. Mr. Hill was the eternal optimist, a loving father and friend. The elegant Madeline Hill had a passion for beauty and all things French including the history and language. She began collecting antiques while on trips to New Orleans and then meticulously designed a fabulous 16,000 square foot River Oaks mansion in Houston to house her collection. Mrs. Hill often mused “that she was born in the wrong century”.
Featuring Property From:
Property Descended in the Family of Important Art Deco Artist Tamara de Lempicka Born Maria Gorska into an aristocratic PolishRussian family in 1898, she was raised by her grandmother after her parents divorced. Her indulgent grandmother spared her nothing in the realm of clothes and travel, and later enrolled her, at age fourteen, in a private school in Lausanne, Switzerland. Visits to her wealthy aunt Stephanie in St. Petersburg were formative. Aunt Stephanie resided in a grand home decorated by the renowned French firm, Maison Jansen. Maria vowed that someday she would live the extravagant life style of her relatives. She fell in love with and married the handsome Polish lawyer, Taduesz Lempicki at the age of sixteen. Due to the Bolshevik Revolution they were soon exiled to Paris which proved to be a pivotal event in her life. She absorbed and reveled in the arts, fashion and the glamorous lifestyles of the Parisians she encountered, many of whom she bedded. Her husband finally decided enough was enough and left her. Having now become Tamara de Lempicka, she quickly found a replacement for Taduesz in Baron Raoul Kuffner, a wealthy patron. She pursued her innate artistic talents becoming a renowned Art Deco portraitist with a distinctive style. Her portraits were of high profile subjects including artists, socialites, scientists, writers, industrialists and nobility, many of whom became personal conquests. Tamara’s tendency to misbehave with her sitters never became an issue with the Baron. As World War II loomed, Tamara and the Baron left Paris for Hollywood where they rented the former home of King Vidor. She immediately became the “Favorite Artist of the Stars”. In 1943, the couple moved to New York and
into a stylish Upper East Side apartment furnished with pieces from the Baron’s estate, Castle Dioszegh, in Hungary (now Czechoslovakia). Tamara continued to paint. She was, of course, in much demand socially and a constant presence in New York’s gossip columns. With the death of the Baron and emerging art trends pushing her Art Deco style out of vogue, Tamara moved to Houston to be with her daughter, Lizette. Her painting style returned to favor in the late 1960s and she was rediscovered and collected by Jack Nicholson, Barbara Streisand and Madonna, who used her works in several music videos and movie sets. Her final journey was to Cuernavaca, Mexico where she bought the beautiful “Tres Bambus” villa. She maintained her individuality and eccentricity until the end. Upon her death in 1980, her ashes were distributed over snowcapped Mount Popocatepetl, as requested.
Property from the A. Hayes Town Designed Hamilton House Baton Rouge, Louisiana Julia Hamilton will tell you that she was born in a tent near Wichita Falls, Texas. Her father, Tandy Hamilton was working as a sous chef for a deluxe hotel during the oil boom in the early 20th century and the family lived in a tent city set up for the oilfield transients. His career path led him into the cafeteria business in Kansas City and in 1944 he purchased the Piccadilly. Hamilton began building the business immediately, despite wartime difficulties imposed by food rationing and equipment shortages. His basic business plan gave 25 percent ownership to his daughter Julia and her husband Bill Richards. Expansion accelerated in the 1950’s and then boomed in the next three decades. In 1971 Hamilton met his personal goal of developing a 40-unit cafeteria chain and that same year he turned the day-to-day operations over to Bill Richards, his successor as president. In 1974, Piccadilly moved its central operations to Sherwood Forest Boulevard in Baton Rouge.
In addition to an office complex the new center housed a test kitchen and an archive for its collection of more than 1000 current Piccadilly recipes. Tragically, Bill Richards was killed in 1977 in a bicycling accident. In 1979 Piccadilly went public. Phenomenal growth in the Piccadilly chain continued through the 1980’s.
Though Piccadilly has been active within various communities since its inception, the first decade of the 21st century was especially notable for Piccadilly’s civic engagement. During this time the restaurant served as corporate sponsor and partner for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, the Louisiana High School Athletic Association, and the Louisiana Special Olympics Summer Games. When Mrs. Julia Hamilton Richards interviewed Mr. A. Hays Town (1903-2005) to see if he could build her the home she had always envisioned she showed him pictures of interiors and furnishings that she had saved over several years. After reviewing them, Hays
Town told Mrs. Hamilton that he could do much better. He was hired and they began the process of not only building the home but of furnishing and decorating it. As was Hays Town’s practice, he introduced his clients to Mr. Henry Stern of Royal Street here in New Orleans. Mrs. Hamilton worked with Mr. Stern and his associate Lucile Andrus making countless trips to New Orleans. Stern and Andrus were instrumental in helping Mrs. Hamilton pick out everything from the furnishings to the drapes. Mrs. Hamilton kept meticulous records and many pieces retain the original invoice and or price tag from Stern’s.
The Estate of Elva Jean McCright Potts Highland Park, Texas Mrs. McCright Potts, a Dallas, Texas native, attended Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri and later completed her college career at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas. She developed an early interest in broadcasting while volunteering and serving as the Radio Chairman of the Girl Scout Council. Her vivacious personality led to guest spots on local television and, later, her own talk show, “Strictly for Women” spotlighting the Dallas social, cultural and business scenes. She was a dedicated and enthusiastic member of the Press Club of Dallas, frequently performing at the annual Gridiron Dinner. Her career included public relations for Dow Chemical and Libbey Glass in addition to executive secretarial duties for the Dallas Civic Playhouse. She was a great supporter of the Junior Camp Fire Girls and member of the Girl Scout Council, Dallas Symphony Orchestra Guild, Dallas Charity Horse Show and Women’s Council of Dallas County. Dallas society welcomed her to the Beaux and Belles Club, the Slipper Club, Park Cities Club and the Cotillion Club, where she served as president. Mrs. McCright Potts spent the 1960’s in Los Angeles where, again, she became involved in many charitable organizations and included in several prominent social clubs.
She was a lifelong member of the Episcopal Church of the Incarnation in Dallas and attended All Saints Episcopal Church while residing in Los Angeles. Along with her many accomplishments, Mrs. McCright Potts will be remembered by her family and legions of friends as a creative, enthusiastic hostess and loyal friend.
The Estate of Don B. Hearin, III Baton Rouge, Louisiana Don B. Hearin III was a collector with a sense of history who considered antiques the ”natural”. Throughout his life, in expertly acquiring the pieces of his collection, Don„s attention to detail and historical significance rivaled that of a museum curator. Yet when viewing this collection in his home the natural grace of a southern home was readily apparent and anything but museum - like. Being in the company of Don and his beautiful things often invited a references to literature and history, with no shortage of allusions to southern life in the past. Many of his favorite treasures were acquired through constant and careful studying of each estate and collection with the aid and expertise of the New Orleans Auction staff. Don found great joy in selecting pieces and determining the quality that made them the perfect addition to his collection.
“Our admiration of the antique is not admiration of the old, but of the natural.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Don was a long time resident of Baton Rouge, Houston, and the Pontalba Apartments in New Orleans. Don attended Washington and Lee University and was a lifetime member of the Sigma Chi fraternity Don’s many interests included his love of literature, architecture, and history, all of which were referenced in his extensive library. With youthful memories of the Natchez Pilgrimage, debutante parties, and the charm of the South, Don’s life was truly that of a consummate Southern gentleman.” Dick Hearin

The inscription here translates: “LIke the wind encountering the flute [the wind] suddenly intuits it [the right note], and each [hole] responds with crystal notes or long base notes.” The passage discusses doing things naturally, not trying to force nature - a favorite Daoist theme. In this context, the sentence also has a political meaning: “Like the wind encountering the flute, [the ruler] suddenly intuits it [the proper thing to do], and each [subject] responds [accordingly] with noble or base actions.” The signature on the side translates as “Lunar third month 1879 / Canshi Wu Jun”. The year is given as Jimao, the sixteenth year in the sexagenary cycle; within Wu Changshuo’s lifetime, this would be the year 1879. Wu Changshuo (1844‑1927), who used courtesy names Changshuo and Cangshi (though his original name was Jun), was both a painter and seal carver. From the Anji district in Zhejiang province, he later lived in Shanghai. In calligraphy, he poured much effort into Shigu wen (Stone Drum writing).

Osler”, h. 49‑1/2”. F. & C. Osler were one of the two companies which established showrooms in India and provided most of the renowned glass furniture to the palaces of the Maharajahs.

This chair is identical to a ca. 1880 design from the Osler archives housed at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery which was loaned to the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York for their June-November 2006 exhibit, “Glass of the Maharajahs”.

1484 Ninety Eight-Piece Set of Georg Jensen “Bernadotte” Sterling Silver Flatware, the pattern designed in 1939 by Sigvard Bernadotte (1907‑2002), Copenhagen, Denmark, including twelve dinner forks, l. 7‑1/2”, twelve luncheon forks, l. 7”, twelve salad/fish forks, l. 6‑3/4” twelve teaspoons, l. 5‑7/8”, twelve soup spoons, l. 6‑1/4”, twelve dinner knives with stainless steel blades, l. 8‑5/8”, twelve fish knives, l. 7‑5/8”, twelve butter spreaders, with stainless steel blades, l. 6‑5/8”, and a two-piece salad serving set, l. 8‑1/2”, 144.36 total t. oz. Sigvard Oscar Fredrick Bernadotte, Count of Wisborg, was born on June 7, 1907 as Prince Sigvard, Duke of Uppland, the second son of Crown Prince Gustav Adolf of Sweden and his first wife, Princess Margaret of Connaught. From 1929 he studied at the Decorative School at the Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm and was instrumental in the creation and installation of the ground-breaking Stockholm Exhibition of 1930 which introduced Functionalism to Scandanavia. That year he signed a contract to create designs for Georg Jensen in Copenhagen, the first non-Dane and, at 23, the youngest person to do so; the contract was never permitted to lapse. The clean lines and modernist style of his designs are credited with reviving the avant garde reputation of the Jensen company. Bernadotte’s eponymous flatware pattern introduced in 1939 - modern yet classic, casual yet sophisticated - remains one of Jensen’s most popular. After working for Acton Bjorn in Copenhagen, Bernadotte later opened his own design studio in Stockholm, where his range of industrial designs ran from chrome tea kettles to plastic kitchen tools. He was one of the founders of the Swedish Industrial Designer’s Society and was for many years the president of the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design. His morganatic marriage in 1934 to commoner Erica Patzek had stripped him of his title and his place in the royal line of succession, but in 1951 he was created Count Bernadotte of Wisborg by Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg. Despite a half-century of petitions, he was never able to secure the restoration of his princely title from either his father, who became King Gustav VI Adolf in 1953, nor his elder brother, who succeeded his father as King Carl XVI Gustav in 1973. (That he married both his second and third wives - both commoners - less than a month after his divorce from their predecessors did not help his cause.) He died on February 4, 2002 in Stockholm, one of the last and still the longest-lived of all Queen Victoria’s greatgrandchildren. (His younger brother, Count Carl Johan Bernadotte of Wisborg is, at this writing, the only living great-grandchild of Queen Victoria.) [10000/15000] Illustrated

In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event the auctioneer doubts the validity of any bid, the auctioneer shall have sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Company’s sales records shall be conclusive in all respects. In the event of a tie bid between an absentee bidder and a live bidder, the lot will be sold to the live bidder. If a lot is offered subject to a reserve (the confidential minimum price below which the lot will not be sold), the Company may implement such reserve by bidding on behalf of the consignor, whether by opening bidding or continuing bidding until the reserve is obtained, by placing consecutive bids or bids in response to other bidders. Consignors shall not be permitted to bid on their own items. While the Company has endeavored to catalog and describe the lots correctly, each lot is sold “as is”, and neither the Company nor the seller warrants or represents, nor shall be responsible for, the description, genuineness, provenance, importance, or condition of a lot. No statement contained in the catalog or made verbally prior to or during the sale shall be deemed to express any warranty, representation, or assumption of responsibility by the Company or the Seller. In the event that the buyer of any lot fails to pay the purchase price thereof when due, the Company shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to (a) enforce payment by civil action or other proceedings against the buyer; (b) to void the sale as if said sale had not occurred; or (c) to exercise any other remedy or remedies available under the law, including but not limited to a second sale of said item in accordance with the provisions of Louisiana Civil Code, Article 2622, including the subsequent enforcement of any deficiency against the initial buyer (d) to charge successful bids to your credit card, including the 23% buyer premium.

The Company further reserves the right to require payment in full of the sales price (“Hammer Price”) at the moment of successful bid. The Purchase Price must be paid by the successful bidder on or prior to the close of the auction. Checks are not acceptable unless a buyer is accredited with the Company; otherwise certified checks are required. Absolutely no items may be removed before the end of the auction.
