Spring 2005 Antiques & Decorative Arts Auction

Auction Details

Our Spring Antiques and Decorative Arts auction encompasses contents from several estates and
downsized homes in Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs. An old farmhouse in Montgomery county had a large collection of primitives; many of the lighting fixtures were provided by a large stone three-story home that housed three generations. The Royal Doultons are from two collections and the approximately sixty Boehm figurines are from a Bucks County collector. A Philadelphia estate provided much of the silver and decorative arts. Most of the jewelry came from the private collection of one gentleman, and much of the artwork is from a downsized Bucks County home.
