Stunning Uranium Glass Vases Fitz Henry / Hugh Lane Runner Strands of genuine pearls 14 kt Pave Ring Lot #100 Eugene Quinn o/c Gloucester Festival Poster Lot of antique/vintage photos Big Re-Seller Lot Well there are 196 lots we're proud of in this auction!
As you can see, we posted a little vignette of a few of them above.
Some of those pics have direct links, some you'll have to hunt for in the auction (hey we had to hunt to find them in the first place:) The matched pair of Daisy & Button uranium glass vases didn't REALLY come from Frankie's Castle, but they're pretty rare.
We LOVE the Fitz Henry / Hugh Lane House table runner!
It's titled Urban Renewal as we found out from Elena Sarni, author of Trailblazing Women Printmakers, who very generously shared her expertise with us on Folly Cove Designs.
The runner posted above is NOT a juried FCD piece, but rather made by Sarah Elizabeth Holloran, who was a Folly Cove Designer.
If you're interested in Folly Cove Design history, you're going to want to read Elena's book.
She is touring and giving lectures on the movement, we attended one at Hammond Castle and it was fascinating!
Here's a link to her book on Amazon But, if at all possible, we recommend you try to pick it up at The Bookstore of Gloucester on Main St.
There just aren't enough great bookstores around these days, so let's try to keep the ones we have!
Next we have some beautiful strands of pearls with a wonderful luster.
The 14k white gold Pave Ring is a showstopper with a center red stone surrounded by real (but admittedly small) diamonds.
It's one of two we have in the auction, and we love it.
We also love the Theresa Bernstein print of two young men standing in front of the Hahba.
