"The brilliance of art as a collectible is that it has a way of reaching out on an emotional level. It touches on mystery, even spirituality." - Robert Genn "Priceless things matter not for their value, but because they offer us an enduring reminder of stability and permanence." - Barbara Taylor Bradford, Power of a Woman We are excited to invite you to our first Antiques & Collectibles auction, offering a carefully curated selection of 31 highly collectible works from these two fascinating, enduring and popular categories. Antiques are collected or desired because of their age, beauty, rarity, condition, utility, personal emotional connection, and/or other unique features. Antiques are usually objects that show some degree of craftsmanship?or a certain attention to design. Collectibles are any objects regarded as being of value or interest to a collector.
