Furniture includes 18th C. French and Spanish furniture, 18th -19th C. mahogany and American antiques and highly decorative carved, veneered and marble-topped pieces.

Decorative arts includes a pair of French bronze girondelles, possibly Baccarat; 19th C. bronze candelabra; pairs of giltwood pedestals; 18th C. and earlier polychrome and carved wooden figures; Tiffany clock; gilt and embossed antique leather panels, Limoges services and sterling silver.

Finally, Midcentury Modern, a Clarke speciality, includes works by or attributed to Raymond Loewy, John Stuart, Moreddi and the potter Beatrice Wood.

Owner Ron Clarke comments “As a result of our recent Fine Art Auction’s success, we’ve secured for this general auction a great collection that rivals in quality the art of our May auction. But we’ve also got 340 additional lots of great furniture and decorative arts, making this one of our strongest and deepest sales of recent years.”

Previews available on Saturday June 28, noon to 6:00 pm and Monday, day-of-sale, June 30 from 2:00 pm to auction start.
