Viewing NotesTWO DAY AUCTION: SATURDAY, January 28, 2012 - 11:00 AM and SUNDAY, January 29, 2012 - 11:00 AM. This will be the first of six auctions planned for 2012, and we are excited to begin with such a stunning array of items. From an original Edison Lamp to an exquisite Patek Philippe mechanical Bird Music Box, this auction is sure to have a treasure for everyone.

Sale NotesWorks by Grandma Moses, Ralph Eugene Cahoon, Jr., Abraham Bogdanove, Jane Peterson, Edward Fitzgerald, Ronald Frontin, and Carl Sprinchorn along with a collection of etchings by Jacob Euston just begin to describe the fine art being offered on Day Two. Jewelry glitters on this day, with over 90 lots of estate and custom jewelry, including pieces byDavid Webb, Andrew Clunn, and Ivan & Co. and watches by Patek Philippe, Rolex and Cartier. A pair of 24 inch tall silver candelabrum by Faberge, a rare charger by silversmith Herbert Zeitner and a solid gold Tiffany cup lead the list of impressive silver and gold tableware and accessories, 40 lots in all. An Italian micro-mosaic top game table, a limited edition guitar made from a pew taken from the Grand Ole Opry House, a Patek Philippe tortoiseshell miniature music box with mechanical singing bird, and an original Edison laboratory light bulb are just some of the interesting and important items being offered. You'll also find furniture, ephemera, bronze sculpture, and a Steinway piano. This session will end with over 100 lots of gold and silver coins, a fitting way to close this sparkling auction.
