From the Dorothy-Lee Jones collection was a lot of two glass decanters, one a clear example with carved floral design and an amber cut glass example in the daisy and button pattern. In a seemingly endless bidding battle well beyond its $200 to $400 estimate, the lot ultimately sold for a phenomenal $22,425.
Prior to an elaborate window being created, Tiffany artists would sketch and paint their ideas in plotting out how the finished product would look. These sketches rarely hit the market and are quite sought after by the collector who has everything. One watercolor of a garden scene depicting a woman standing at a fountain in the setting sun far exceeded a presale estimate of $2,000 to $3,000 to finish up at $18,400.
original presentation box went out at $12,650. Other highlights from his collection included a Clichy millefiori newel post with a variety of flowers in a range of hues. Estimated for $6,000 to $10,000, it sold for $10,350. His Clichy millefiori paperweight with a close pack of exquisitely crafted flowers went out at $9,200 against a $2,000 to $3,000 estimate. From other collections came examples such as an antique St. Louis dahlia with a yellow central stamen surrounded by five tiers of blue striped petals. This exceptional piece brought $16,100, just over its estimate. Miscellaneous highlights included a selection (Continued on page 25)
