The estate of Tiffany George will be sold by Joe Bodnar of Bodnars Auction over two days on Wednesday and Thursday, June 22 and 23. George attended Joe Bodnars first auction in 1994 and was a staple in the front row. He bought the first Tiffany lamp at that sale, and the rest was history, as he was hooked on buying the best art glass and lighting that came through Bodnars for over 25 years. The estate is packed with Tiffany, Lalique, clocks, art, sterling, Erte, bronzes, figurines and other decorative art items. This will be the first of several sales of his collection. Bodnars is honored to take his collection and pass it on to a new generation of collectors to cherish what he loved, above all, Tiffany. Growing up in Sayreville and South Amboy, Georges home was filled with antique finds from auctions all over the state of New Jersey. The first time I delivered a large auction purchase I remember even his kitchen sink had Tiffany shades just sitting there! commented Joe Bodnar. His home was like a museum. His son kept many items to remember his dad, but his home too is full and (he) wanted to see his fathers collections find new homes, said Bodnar. Day one on will feature over 200 pieces of art from several local estates including Tiffany Georges estate and art from the collection of a retired doctor. Highlights for this session feature an oil-on-canvas by Ivan Theys (Belgian 1936-2005) titled Zelf Portnet met Minese, estimated at $2,000-$4,000, despite its appraisal of $65,000.
