Session I

The Kadison Collection of Wedgwood Lots 1-232 to be sold Friday, October 1st, 2010 at 6 p.m.

The Kadison Collection Carita and Stuart Kadison were collectors. Over their time together they built several significant collections: French caricatures that now reside in the Santa Barbara Museum, oyster plates that still cover the walls of the house, early Utah photographs that hang at Brigham Young University, but most importantly the Wedgwood and majolica collections. Carita originally started with oyster plates––which now cover, floor to ceiling, the two story entry hall of their home and have flowed over into the homes of their children––but she needed more exciting, broader, and challenging opportunities. Although they started collecting Wedgwood in the late 50’s with the purchase of a not so good Portland vase, Stuart and Carita really began to lay the foundation in the 60’s. At first any Wedgwood qualified but very soon they narrowed their focus to period Wedgwood (1760-1795) and especially Wedgwood and Bentley (1769-1780). Seal Simon, Fred and Mary Tongue, Leo Kaplan, and David Newbon all found pieces for them. Carita and Stuart spent many weekends and trips searching out new pieces in antique shops throughout the United States and Europe. Whenever they traveled you could expect crates to arrive with new acquisitions. As their knowledge grew they sold less special items and replaced them with more significant pieces, including a much better Portland vase. Collections within the collection grew: Stuart had an appetite for tritons and busts, Carita for sleeping babies, or if you prefer, the Somni. Carita’s taste was expansive enough to include useful ware and Wedgwood majolica. Stuart always joked that the Majolica was her collection, and garnished the mermaids pulling the fishing net with a can of sardines, anchovies or smoked oysters as the spirit moved him. However, as he says in the introduction to the 1983 Huntington catalogue of the original loan collection:

“…it has been a joint effort from the beginning. There is no object…upon the acquisition of which Mrs. Kadison and I did not agree, albeit often after careful study and sometimes heated, but generally cordial, debate. We find our greatest reward in having assembled it together.”

Stuart researched each piece meticulously, building a library of Wedgwood and ceramic reference materials and books. He corresponded with museums and other collectors. He kept and updated detailed ledgers filled with notes on each piece’s provenance, as well as his research. He recorded prices in his own confounding version of the “CUMBERLAND” code. I never understood why, but my sister thinks it simply amused him. (Our grandfather was a code breaker during World War I.) He measured each piece with a custom device that Carita’s uncle designed. It was laboratory quality and took far more time to use than perhaps the measurement was worth. My great uncle Bud also carved and painted stands for various medallions that were little works of art on their own. Every piece was photographed. Clearly a large part of the fun for Stuart was in the details: he was a curator at heart. My mother’s fun was in the presentation and aesthetic enjoyment. In the late 60’s they remodeled the house to show off the collection, converting one room to a museum style galley and commissioning special cabinets for the dining room. In the 80’s a new master suite was designed around the majolica collection. Except for the loan exhibit at the Huntington, you had to be invited to dinner to see the collection. We are convinced that Carita raised orchids for the sole purpose of display in the bowls, urns and compotes that were the centerpieces at their many dinner parties. Together they were a great collecting team. And over the years they made great friends through the friendly competition of collecting, Mann Sharf, Lloyd Bleier, the Butens, the Lenharts and many others whom we cannot remember. My sister does recall a visit to husband and wife collectors in Philadelphia. After dinner Dana spent several hours with their adult children drinking far too much cognac, and comparing and commiserating over the shared manias of our parents. To protect the innocent she refuses to name names. One of Carita and Stuart’s greatest wishes was to have the collection on permanent display in an appropriate setting. This wish was realized when in 2007 we arranged for the donation of over 100 pieces for display in the newly remodeled Huntington Art Gallery at the Huntington Library, Art Collection, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California. We hope that this collection will go to other Wedgwood collectors who will get the same enjoyment and have the same passion as Carita and Stuart. Brian Kadison and Dana Kadison

Session II Property from Astor’s “Beechwood,” Newport, Rhode Island, Property of Various Owners, & Fine Silver, including the Sataloff Collection of Chinese Export Silver Lots 233-1249 to be sold Saturday, October 2nd, 2010 at 10 a.m.

Reproduction of a postcard showing the ballroom of Beechwood, c. 1902 Pictured in the image are lots 233, elements of lot 278, 283, and 304

Property from Astor’s “Beechwood” Lots 233-324 Beechwood Mansion at 580 Bellevue Avenue (famously known as “Millionaire’s Row”) in Newport, Rhode Island, was the summer “cottage” of Mr. and Mrs. William B. Astor, Jr. Mr. Astor purchased the thirty-nine room ocean-front mansion as an anniversary present for his wife in 1880 for $190,941.50. From 1881 to 1906, Mrs. Astor (nee Caroline Webster Schermerhorn, 1831–1908), summered at Beechwood, where, as the creator of the first American social register, she reigned as the undisputed queen of society. In the foyer of Beechwood, ladies and gentleman quaked in their finery awaiting a possible audience with the grand Mrs. Astor in her rose-decorated French parlour--suitable for a woman known as “The Mystic Rose.” Designed by Jules Allard & Sons, it was designed and built in Paris, and then brought to Newport by Richard Morris Hunt. Every member of high society prayed for an invitation to one of her glittering gatherings in the mansion’s exquisite ballroom overlooking the ocean. Designed by Hunt and Allard & Sons, the ballroom featured eight hundred mirrors and panes of glass, reflecting the ocean, the décor, and furnishings in all their glory. When Mrs. Astor died in 1908, Beechwood was left to her son John Jacob Astor. In 1911, the ballroom was the site of his scandalous second marriage to Madeleine Talmage Force. He died in 1912 in the sinking of the Titanic. Upon his death Beechwood passed to his son William Vincent Astor who spent a great deal of time there, and continued the Astor tradition of premier entertaining. The house left Astor hands in 1940, when it was sold to Countess Allene de Kotzebue. The historically rich items offered here for sale reflect the level of detail and decoration that Mrs. William Astor looked for in decorating her “cottage.” It is easy to imagine the balls and parties held during her stays at Beechwood, and the Jazz Era soirees hosted by her grandson. More recently, Beechwood was available for private events, and many happy weddings and parties have taken place amidst the grandeur of the fine furnishings sold here at auction. This material is a direct link to one of the most famous names in American social history, and a rare opportunity to own a piece that once belonged to a member of American “royalty.”

The purchase and the painting are referenced in the pamphlet William Parsons Winchester Dana: Biographical Note, written by his son, Robert W. Dana, in 1927 in conjunction with a memorial exhibition of Dana’s works held at the Gieves Art Gallery in London. Dana painted several scenes of the Constitution engaged in naval battles. Robert Dana describes his father’s love of the sea and friendships with other important American artists of the time, including Whistler and Sargent, and states that by 1862 “his reputation was well established and he was elected in that year a member of the National Academy of Design. One of his works was acquired for their collection in Philadelphia, while another was subsequently purchased for the Metropolitan Museum of New York. Other pictures of his found their way into private collections, such as that of the late William Astor (‘Escape of the U.S. Frigate Constitution from a British Squadron’), while another painting showing another phase of the same stirring incident was acquired by the late James Gordon Bennett.” $20,000-40,000
