PROPERTY FROM A
PRIVATE SOUTHERN
COLLECTION
(Lots 101-115)
Behind the elegant, shuttered façade of an 18th century townhouse tucked away
on a leafy street a collecting couple created a stunning and unusual interior,
mixing African art, modern furniture and Chinese export porcelain. Light-flled,
airy rooms with classic architectural details made a perfect showcase for the
carefully selected, high quality armorial and tea cultivation porcelain dishes.
Now it is time for the couple to let the collection go, with the hope that each
piece will be enjoyed by other collectors in other beautiful rooms.
