Antiques & Modern's April 25 Online Auction has 700 Lots of Fine Artwork, Sculpture, Decorative Arts

An online-only Fine Artwork, Sculpture & Decorative Arts auction bursting with around 700 quality lots – some of them pulled from a large and important estate in Manalapan, Florida – will be held on Saturday, April 25th, by Antiques & Modern Auction Gallery, starting at 1pm Eastern Time. Phone and absentee bids will also be accepted.

“The fine artwork category includes a great collection of modern art, originals and a variety of prints from notable galleries,” said Scott Cieckiewicz of Antiques & Modern Auction Gallery. “Art glass features some of the largest Daum pate-de-verre pieces we’ve ever seen, as well as a well-rounded collection of Lalique crystal. Many of the glass pieces include the original boxes.”

Cieckiewicz added there are also bronze, steel and acrylic sculptures up for bid, all by notable artists. An example is lot #6, an iron freeform sculpture on a travertine stone base by Argentine sculptor Enio Iommi (1926-2013).
