Strawberry Fields (First week of Nov)

Curious Cat Estate Sales had the pleasure of managing our most ambitious sale as we completed the remarkable year of 2020. This gorgeous antique home in Reading Ma was absolutely full out of antique furniture along with vintage, modern and mid modern items. Asian and nautical items were dispersed throughout the house. This home also had a generation of collectibles including ephemera, dolls and both vintage and contemporary trains. We had never seen so many kitchen items including many sets of china and incredible serving plates. A few of the antique items included a gorgeous floor model graphophone, an external horn Victrola, a Portland coal stove and many exquisite pieces of furniture. As the sale date approached the complete contents of a second home in Reading. As a result, a one weekend site evolved into a series of sales. We began with two days of appointment only sales. After several days of further of further preparing, we held a 4-day traditional sale. After a very successful week of sales the house was still full of items yet. What now?

We were in Georgetown for the first time to do a vintage gentleman's farm during the hottest part of this summer. The home/barn/sheds featured artwork, oils, watercolors, acrylic, many done by the owner. The owner had been a dentist but more importantly a real renaissance man capable of doing almost anything. The home also had African sculptures, Native American pieces, Eskimo pieces and lots of vintage furnishing. It was a very hot sale (in many ways).....one we will not easily forget.

The Curious Cat visited the homesite of Elizabeth How, one of the original alleged witches in the Salem territory. In its place currently Isits a beautiful reproduction early American Colonial. The home and property is oozing in history and housed many vintage and antique books about Ipswich and surrounding community. Along with many books were many pieces of artwork including British artwork much of which could be found in the British man-cave in the basement. It was a great sale!

We traveled to Dracut, the first sale we have ever done in Dracut in 15+ years, to help liquidate a beautiful home on Arbour Drive. The style was definitely modern. Some pieces were brought in by the owner from outside the home but we were fortunate to be able to liquidate the majority of the items.
