September 13th Grand View Auction Victorian Furniture Overview

Grand View will have a little of everything Victorian in this upcoming sale on Saturday. The bed above will be up for sale and they are attributing it to Alexander Roux. I would be happy to pay within the expected range of $4,000 to $6,000 for a bed of this quality were it to actually sell in that vicinity. There will be plenty of Rococo, Renaissance Revival, Eastlake and even a bit of the Aesthetic Movement. A few top names will be attributed to items in this sale - Belter, Pottier & Stymus, Kimbel & Cabus, and Roux. If you are interested in R.J. Horner items, I enumerated those that will be sold over at the Horner blog here.
