Fine English & Continental Furniture, Silver & Decorative Arts

Freeman’s English & Continental Furniture, Silver & Decorative Arts department conducts three important sales a year in late January, early May, and early October, each including a wide range of property consigned from private Estates, Collections, and Institutions. Primarily focused on the 18th and 19th centuries, the sales include pieces from all periods from the Baroque to the mid 20th Century, with a typically strong representation of 18th century English furniture and furnishings. The sales are historically high points in the auction calendar and attract a strong national and international client base. Our internationally trained and experienced staff are capable of working confidently with single consignments and entire estates, and are committed to providing clients with the best service possible.

Recent highlights include a Faberge silver and enameled ‘firebird’ kovsh selling for $533,000; a large KPM porcelain plaque with a topographical view of Berlin for $61,000; a Louis Chalon bronze “Octopus Dancer” for $53,800; a George II mahogany library armchair for $42,500; a Regency grand orrery for $49,000; and a pair of French enameled opaline vases for $41,600.
