400+ LOTS including FURNITURE: Spanning the 18th-20th centuries, our diverse offering of fine antique furniture is sure to satisfy. A hefty portion of American examples to be dispersed include Colonial, Federal, and Aesthetic movement pieces which tastefully intermingle with attractive European designs. The subtle and effortless forms of Directoire and Biedermeier periods flirtatiously contrast with flamboyant trends from the Gilded Age compiling a collection of furniture which refuses to relent.
FINE ART: American and Continental oils on canvas range from Renaissance masterworks to iconic regional compositions, including works by regional artist Kathryn Bard Cherry. Other mediums available are select lithographs, watercolors, and woodblocks from listed artists around the globe.
DECORATIVE ART: A single owner collection of painted porcelains feature figurines, plaques, and chargers. Small and seemingly unbreakable bronzes of the female figure juxtapose the delicacy of glass, porcelain, and several carved bone objects of interest.
