Asian Collections Auction

John McInnis Auctioneers / February 25, 2023 / Amesbury, Massachusetts

http://www.mcinnisauctions.com

An Asian Collections Auction featuring the personal private collection of Dr. Allan Bezan of Chestnut Hill, Mass., plus other prominent estates from greater Boston, will be held on Saturday, February 25th, starting at 10 am Eastern time, by John McInnis Auctioneers. This will be a timed online auction, with bidding offered exclusively on LiveAuctioneers.com. The catalog is packed with nearly 700 lots of Japanese and Chinese items, to include fine art, fine furniture, porcelains, bronzes, ceramics, snuff bottles and more. All items will be sold to the highest bidder without reserves, and all lots will have a modest opening bid of ten dollars. Lots 1-250 will comprise the Japanese collection; lots 275-680 will comprise the Chinese collection. The expected top lot of the auction actually isn’t Asian at all. It’s a last-minute consignment that John McInnis Auctioneers simply had to fold into the catalog: a dazzling GIA-certified 7.53-ct. diamond set in an 18kt gold mount, the center diamond round brilliant cut (or European cut), boasting S-T color grade range and VS2 clarity. It’s a size 7 (est. $15,000-$30,000). Live, in-gallery exhibitions and previews will be held Wednesday, February 15th, thru Friday, February 25th, from 12 o’clock noon to 4 pm Eastern time each day. These will be held in the John McInnis Auctioneers gallery, located at 63 Clinton Street in Amesbury, Massachusetts.
