Alderfer Auction is proud to present the lifelong Single Owner Collection of Bob and Peg Parks. A pair of devoted collectors, the Parks’ filled their home with treasures bought at local auction houses and flea markets. The bright and glimmering colors of Murano glass became a favorite commodity which they were known for collecting. They also had an eye for leaded glass lamps, Art Deco bronzes, artwork, and carved furniture. Their love of perusing antique stalls began as a weekend hobby for the husband-and-wife duo but today their collection has grown into a spectacular exhibition worthy of a museum. Part 1 includes over 300 lots of Murano glass, Art Deco desk trays, lamps and clocks, slag glass lamps, art and furniture. Highlights include Baccarat crystal Stag head, Bradley and Hubbard Slag glass lamps, paintings by Christopher High Shearer, Melville Stark, and Victor Shearer, carved furniture and display cases. Part 2 of this special collection will be offered in May.
