Auctions Neapolitan sets the stage for Ladies with Style –
Part II, on July 24
NAPLES, Fla. – A century of fashion steps into the spotlight
on Saturday, July 24 as Auctions Neapolitan presents its 404-lot Ladies with
Style sale, part II, with Internet live bidding provided by
LiveAuctioneers.com.
Fashionistas will have a field day choosing from the
selection of dresses and accessories that were chosen for the event, said
Auctions Neapolitan’s owner, Kathleen Pica. “It’s a nice mix of ladies’
favorites from the 19th century up to about the 1990s. Some of the
items are very beautifully made – it’s incredible to see the fine workmanship
that went into many of these pieces, especially when compared to what we see
today.”
In addition to standard apparel, the auction includes
antique lace and satin bridal wear, and gorgeous beaded dresses and gowns that
bring to mind the days of Joan Collins and Linda Evans on Dynasty. Estimates and opening bids are extremely reasonable. For
instance, lot 124, a 1970s Balenciaga-designed Jeffrey and Dave side-draped
velvet gown has a starting bid of only $10 and an estimate of $80-$100. An
early 1960s Yves Saint Laurent-designed black satin and lace top with peplum
waist and long sleeves also has an opening bid of $10 and is estimated at
$40-$60.
Costume jewelry has never been more popular, and Auctions
Neapolitan’s sale is the place to look for bracelets, necklaces, earrings and
brooches sold in generous “tray” lots. For instance, lot 42 is a tray loaded
down with assorted costume jewelry – some of it signed – by such makers as
Marvella, Trifari and Monet. Many of the pieces feature faux diamonds, faux
pearls and rhinestones. This mini trove of costumer treasures has an opening
bid of $10 and an estimate of $50-$100.
The auction also features many pieces of fine jewelry, which
is not surprising, since Auctions Neapolitan is located in the upscale
waterfront community of Naples, Florida. Lot 212, a platinum ring featuring a
1-carat center ruby stone and .60 carats of diamonds is estimated at
$1,800-$2,200; while a 14K yellow gold ring featuring six square-cut,
channel-set blue sapphires and 24 round-cut, channel-set diamonds is
conservatively estimated at $900-$1,200. Both rings have an opening bid of
$900-$1,200.
Accessories include designer hats, shoes, compacts, gloves,
wraps, vintage eyewear, antique handbags and both crystal and beaded purses. A
standout is lot 343, a vintage micro-beaded, silk-lined handbag displaying a
Venetian scene. “This is just the sort of bag that collectors love,” said Pica.
“The artistry is superb.” The purse is estimated at $300-$500 and has an
opening bid of $10.
In addition to fashion, the auction also includes a
selection of old sewing machines, including a miniature hand-crank model by
singer (lot 7) that is estimated at $50-$100.
“We think this sale is going to be a lot of fun, and of
course with LiveAuctioneers making it possible to bid online, collectors
anywhere in the world can come to our virtual boutique online and place their
bids,” said Pica.

Black Forest tobacco jar, plentiful fine art at Auctions Neapolitan, May
22
NAPLES, Fla. –
Can lightning strike twice in the Black Forest Auctions Neapolitan’s
owner Kathleen Pica thinks there’s a good chance it could happen on May

unusual 19th-century carved-wood tobacco canister in the form of a fox
and hare. Internet live bidding will be provided by LiveAuctioneers.com.

Neapolitan
NAPLES, Fla. Auctions Neapolitan's March 13 Discovery Sale
features approximately 425 lots of fine estate antiques, art glass, a World War
II army officer's military collection and accomplished artworks by
African-American artists. Internet live bidding will be provided by
LiveAuctioneers.com.
Leading the African-American lots is a 1969 oil painting by
Alvin D. Loving Jr. (1935-2005, Detroit and New York). The artist-signed
geometric acrylic work on a custom hexagonal stretcher titled Pink and Blue, based on a pencil
inscription on verso. The painting comes with a photocopy of the original
gallery receipt from William Zeirler Inc., 956 Madison Avenue, New York.
Estimate: $4,000-$6,000.
An oil painting of a graffiti-covered brick wall by
African-American artist Walter Cade III (New York, b. 1936-) is a
mid-20th-century work measuring 50 inches by 26 inches. The signed picture is
estimated at $1,800-$2,200.
Norris Embry's (1921-1981) mixed media painting titled No. 74 could draw comparisons to the
style of Joan Miro or even Jean-Michel Basquiat. Embry was an American neo-expressionist artist
born on
January 14, 1921
in Louisville,
Kentucky. He grew up in East Orange, N.J., outside New York City, and in the
Chicago suburb of Evanston. After completing high school, he studied at St.
John's College in Annapolis, Md.,
and the Art Institute in Chicago. In the late 1940s, he attended the Academy of
Fine Arts in Florence,Italy. His teacher there,
the Expressionist
painter Oskar
Kokoschka, was to have a lasting influence on Embry's work. Pica
believes Embry's work could become very important. His auction records haven't
gotten really high in the past, but I think they will in the future because his
art is very good, Pica said. There are many paintings in this sale that could
be described similarly excellent works that have yet to be discovered in the
mainstream. Read the complete article with images here!
