An English repousse silver pitcher made by R&S Garrand of London around 1861, a seven-piece sterling silver tea service made in Germany, and a fine selection of Tibetan Buddhist thangkas (religious paintings) are key lots in Converse Auctions’ next East Meets West Sale, an online-only auction scheduled for Friday, December 1st, starting at 10 am Eastern time. Those are just a few items in a 474-lot auction where Asian objects will be sold along with items from the Western culture – hence the title East Meets West. Internet bidding will be provided by LiveAuctioneers.com, Invaluable.com and HiBid.com, plus the Converse Auctions website, at www.converseauctions.com, and via Google Play (for Android) and the App Store (for iPhone).“This wonderfully packed auction, just in time for the holidays, features many items from a shop that operated on Philadelphia’s Jewelers Row for over 70 years,” said Todd Converse, owner of Converse Auctions, based in Malvern, adding, “Many of the Chinese items were consigned by a lifelong Washington, D.C.-based antiques collector. He was also an international businessman.” For further information, please visit www.converseauctions.com.
