Fairway Estate Auction

KC Auction & Appraisal Company is pleased to present a single-owner Fairway, Kansas estate built over more than forty years of thoughtful collecting. This auction includes an impressive selection of fine furniture, Asian art, mid-century design, and decorative objects chosen for quality, craftsmanship, and visual appeal.

The highlight of this estate is a Philip & Kelvin LaVerne bronze coffee table, a highly sought-after designer piece known for sculptural form, hand-worked surfaces, and distinctive etched decoration. LaVerne furniture remains one of the most desirable categories in mid-century design and is rarely available at the estate level.

Another standout offering is a Chinese painting purchased from Gracie, the respected New York source for fine Asian art, furniture, and décor. Collectors familiar with Gracie will recognize the exceptional quality associated with items selected from their gallery.

This estate is rich in varied furniture styles, including Queen Anne style tables, Jacobean-style carved oak furniture, carved walnut pieces, mahogany tables, side tables, and multiple pairs of tables and chairs—an attractive feature for decorators and those designing cohesive interiors. Numerous lots include carved details, gilt surfaces, brass accents, and bronze décor, all strong search categories on estate platforms.

For buyers of Asian art and decorative objects, the auction features a substantial group of Chinese and Japanese pieces, including porcelain vases, decorative boxes, carved figures, wall art, and other traditional forms that appeal to collectors of Asian décor. The mix also includes wicker furnishings, multiple lamps and lighting pairs, floral décor, prints, and paintings, each representing the homeowner’s interest in balancing color, texture, and craftsmanship.

This Fairway estate offers an excellent opportunity to acquire well-maintained furniture, artwork, and decorative objects covering a wide range of collecting categories—mid-century design, Asian art, traditional furniture, and quality décor. Whether you are a collector, interior designer, or someone searching for distinctive pieces for the home, this auction presents a diverse and engaging selection from a long-established Kansas City residence.
