    Lots of nice stuff at this furniture/collectible/pottery auction this AM.

    Decent selection of furniture. Standard brown American oak/maple/walnut items but the quality was just a few notches above the typical fair.

    Prices were very reasonable:

    The lion head rocker brought $225.
    The curved display cabinet with all the flow blue sold for $175.
    The entire lot of flow blue inside that cabinet was $225 (I was the under bidder at $200).
    The entire group of lamp shades sold for $675 (may have been best deal of the day).
    The other tall cabinets sold for around $150-250.

    Enjoy!

    Lots of Maxfield Parrish prints. Do you know what the large size Cleopatra sold for? Once upon a time they were well over $2000, in a frame like that.

    Wow, I wish I could have been there! That nightstand in the Parrish photo would have found a new home :)

    I don't have any recent experience with Parrish prints, but if those are the 1924-ish versions sanctioned by Parrish himself and in their original frames, they were selling for around $500 a few years ago. Nice!!

    Definitely a notch above in quality than any of our local auctions. Looks like there was some interesting pottery too.
