Your only chance ever to acquire something out of the estate of The Sisters of St. Joseph Convent here in Wichita. The nuns are downsizing a bit (as a lot of us are these days) and have entrusted us to help. You will not be disappointed.
There will be an ABUNDANCE of incredible items offered in this 7000 sq ft sale. As you can imagine, over the decades, much has been donated to this congregation. Highlights include a stunning 19th C Oil Painting by noted Scottish artist Peter Graham, Antique Arts and Crafts/Mission furniture, Asian antiques from their sister convents in Japan, Art Pottery, Religious Icons, figurines, gold & diamond jewelry, paintings and other unusual, valuable and intriguing items. This is a rare thing indeed to get (and give at the same time) something from this charitable Wichita institution. Check back often as we update photos and lists of items.
