A Bavarian Throne and Other Must-haves: Monumental furniture stars at Red Baron's Nov. auction
- November 02, 2009 12:44
This magnificent black walnut two-seated throne with pierce-carved armrests was once installed in a Bavarian castle. The piece was chosen to go in what would have been the most expensive residence in the United States, the Pinnacle, a 53,000-sq.-ft. home to be built in the Yellowstone Club in Montana, but a divorce got in the way. The home was never built and the couple's furniture collection, perhaps worth $8 million, will be sold November 6-8 at Red Baron's in Atlanta.
