CHICAGO — Nearly every auction has a few lots that are so different and unique, they command attention and interest from auctioneers and bidders alike. Rivich Auction has assembled its Sunday, November 19 By Land Or Sea sale around, well, a sea of unusual items that makes it a catalog worth browsing. It is now available for bidding at LiveAuctioneers.

Items taken from nature are a dominant theme in the auction. A plush chair seemingly fashioned entirely from steer horns — legs, frame and back — and cowhide encapsulates the sale perfectly. In what is described as “very nice condition for its age,” the chair is estimated at $750-$1,500.

On the more conventional side is a pair of Georgian-style red leather armchairs with nailhead trim. Structurally sound with minor wear, the set carries an estimate of $500-$1,000.

Returning to the natural realm, a zebra-skin rug measuring 128 by 76in joins the lineup. It has small tears and some typical wear, and is estimated at $500-$900.

Five lots described as “taxidermy” are featured, including mounts and full-body examples. Not quite taxidermy but incorporating moose antlers in a Black Forest design is this handsome mirror. It measures 56 by 40in and would make an impressive statement in any outdoors-themed environment. It has an estimate of $500-$1,000.

Returning to more traditional looks is a collection of Heywood-Wakefield furniture. Since 1826, the company has been furnishing American homes and offices with quality items that last for generations. All the lots have low estimates, including this bookcase, estimated at $500-$750.

NEW YORK – Home furnishings are more than just utilitarian objects to make our lives easier. For hundreds of years, craftsmen the world over have created items for the home that not only perform the service for which they are intended — they do it with style, personality and beauty.

Fine furnishings and decorative arts from the 18th to the 20th centuries are the focus at Jasper52‘s Era of Elegance auction on Tuesday, September 19, starting at 3 pm Eastern time. The sale is now open for bidding exclusively at LiveAuctioneers.

Looking beautiful at more than 240 years of age, this pair of Chippendale George II tables are from a Chicago estate and feature mahogany flip tops revealing a tea table area on one, while the other opens to reveal a card table. The set carries an estimate of $18,000-$22,000.

Antique table lamps add tremendous character to any setting. This Handel Arts & Crafts palm tree table lamp dates to the 1900s and features brilliant color. Made of art glass and bronze, it is estimated at $11,000-$13,000.

From the mid-century modern period of design comes this pair of Asko Laila armchairs finished in sheepskin. Designed by Ilmari Lappalainen for the Finnish company best remembered for its mid-century modern furniture, the pair have been estimated at $19,000-$23,000.
