Upcoming Auctions from STAIR
The Collection of Susan and Alan Miller
The Antiquarians: The Collection of Susan and Alan Miller Susan and Alan Miller were discerning antiquarians whose refined eye and deep intellectual curiosity shaped a lifetime of thoughtful collecting. Susan?s passion for textiles was a key pillar of their collecting, guided by a fascination with the history embedded in woven patterns, embroidered motifs, and the centuries-old design traditions they reflect. This connection to historical references extended across the couple?s collection, where highlights including European drawings, Asian works of art, and European and American furniture show an appreciation for the decorative arts in all their forms.

STAIR Carries a Great Variety
Perhaps because STAIR is located in the Hudson Valley where Artists, Educators, and Cultural figures lived in the 19th century, STAIR has access to fine antiques and artworks from that era. I personally collect all things Gothic and Medieval so I was very pleased to find a Gothic Revival Chair offered at their Auction. I was even more pleased that I was the successful bidder although shipping a couple of states away, was a concern. I was happy that a Hudson, NY UPS store was able to pack and ship the chair (it was much heavier than I thought) and get it delivered to my home with only a broken dowel, easily repaired. I wish STAIR were closer, but in the meantime, I will continue to look for items that match my collecting categories. They were very attentive to my inquiries and helpful in arranging shipping. In summary, I feel they are a very good Auction house and would buy from STAIR again.
