This sale is beautiful and features objects that have not been seen in sale circles for a long time. It’s great stuff from a family of long-time collectors. A jillion years ago, they owned one of Houston’s most popular antique shops. So, the things here represent the best stuff we’ve worked with in a very long time. That’s really what this one is about. Super things! The objects that are in the house give the place a bright museum feel. There is something for everyone. If you collect, have a booth or shop, or merely like great stuff, this is the place to be. Looking for an outstanding rolltop desk? We’ve got three. Daddy-sized, momma sized and baby-sized.

Cute small secretaries are here that you will want to pinch- but don’t, they are made of wood. See 19th century English bamboo furniture- wonderful useful examples. Did I mention the brass bed? This beautiful monster cannon ball bed is a prototypical example. When you say big brass bed, this is the image you think of. Remember the 70s tv show, “Love, American Style,” that was too racy for you to be allowed to watch? This is a bed like in those opening credits. (Oh millennials, you’ve missed so much.) Art! Lots. Prints, oils, birds... amazing. Speaking of birds- there are several gorgeous, ancient bird stained glass panels. Wowza. Lots of other stained glass too!

Everything awaits your arrival. The garage. Yep. There it is. She. Is. Huge. like a good garage should be. It’s perfect, clean, and organized. A brass cash register, can you imagine?

Enter through the front door. No numbers given. (We never do.) Saturday, March 6, 10 am to 3pm Sunday, March 7, 11am to 3 pm 14315 echo bluff About that- this sale take a little time to get to. Take Mopac until it ends, loop a bit down 45 until you bang into 1826. Then it’s just a hop and a skip. It took me 24 minutes from my house in north Austin. It’s a ways , but it’s a fast trip and so worth it. Park well or the neighbors will have you towed. Even if you have to walk a bit. It’s great weather. (In theory.) Thank you so much. We are all in this together. Carl and the Estate Services of Austin crew. More than likely checkout could be slower and even more baskety than normal. Reduced capacity will be enforced, so the wait may be longer than normal. Don’t panic. The hold station will be self-service to avoid as much contact as possible. We cannot do presales for this sale. We probably also cannot provide prices, measurements, makers, fabric content or thread count prior to the sale. We also cannot hold items prior to sale day. This has always been so fun. Let’s try and keep it that way. Thank you all for wearing a mask with us during the sales. We really appreciate it. Also, bring someone to help you carry your treasures. We say this every time, but we cannot help you carry crazy big things to your vehicle. For real. Insurance regulations and our broke-down backs don’t allow it. More photos are being posted until sale day. Check back. |
