A museum-quality, 394-pound meteorite – by far the largest specimen of its kind for sale in the world – will come up for bid in an online-only Premier Spring Estate Auction planned for Tuesday, April 6th, at 11 am Eastern time by Gallery 63 in Atlanta. Online bidding is via the Gallery 63 website (www.gallery63.net), plus LiveAuctioneers.com and Invaluable.com. “Meteorites of this size and importance do not come up for public sale very often,” said Paul Brown, who serves as a consultant for Gallery 63, having passed along ownership to his son, Elijah. “It wouldn’t be out of place in any of the world’s museums.” The meteorite, which comes with a custom-built iron stand measuring 74 inches tall, has an estimate of $100,000-$200,000. While the meteorite is the auction’s clear headliner, there are other items to consider in the 343-lot catalog, mostly fine estate jewelry pieces and watches pulled from prominent estates and collections. All can be viewed online, or seen live and in-person at the Gallery 63 showroom in Atlanta, by appointment only. To schedule an appointment, call 404-600-3445, or, send an email to info@gallery63.net. All COVID 19 safety protocols will be observed and masks are required. Gallery 63 is located at 2152 Faulkner Road in Atlanta, Georgia (zip: 30324). The firm is always accepting quality items for future sales. To inquire about consigning an item, an estate or a collection, call 404-600-3445 or email info@gallery63.net.
