NEW YORK – Nearly 350 lots of decorative arts, exquisite finery for the home, are offered in an online auction that will be conducted by Jasper52 on Wednesday, Oct. 28. Bid absentee or live online exclusively through LiveAuctioneers.  Sterling silver accounts for some of the most valuable lots in the sale. A Charles II porringer (above) made in 1668 by a London silversmith is a fine example and is expected to sell for up to $2,000. Also from 17th century England is a sterling silver Charles II tankard valued at more than $20,000. The 8-inch-high flat-top tankard has a hinged lid and bears the mark “EG” (probably Edward Gladwin).
