This auction is for a charming piece by Andria Feld entitled, “Marie Antoinette Mill.” It is a beautiful springtime limited edition lithograph and is hand-signed by the artist.
The auction reads, “DON’T WAIT! BID NOW TO OWN OR GIFT THIS STUNNING PIECE! Able to capture moments and turn them into everlasting images, Andria Feld’s work is a heartfelt ode to the beauty of nature! Marie Antoinette Mill ” is a limited edition lithograph on paper, numbered and hand signed! Measures Approx: 30.50 x 25.00 (border), and 26.50 x 21.00 (image)
“Originally, Andria Feld wanted to be an architect, but after taking interior design at Walla Walla College in Washington, Feld had a change of heart. The classes she felt most moved by, were those of figure drawing and sculpture. After she began experimenting with watercolor washes to her drawings of historic buildings, Andria realized the important nuances that color could bring to her projects. In time, she moved to oil, and it wasn t long before she was painting, instead of drawing, although she maintains that all her pieces are all rooted to a foundation in drawing. She loves the problem solving aspect of painting, a process she says is continuous, even when I m not painting. Andria Feld has taken part in many exhibitions along the west coast, has done numerous event posters, and teaches oil painting classes, as well as Oregon Arts in Education workshops.”

Our fine jewelry and art auctions often include gorgeous hand blown glass sculptures.
This funky and unique elephant sculpture is a hand blown glass sculpture. It is made in England (yep, like Elton John) by Langham Glass. The piece is hand signed and makes a beautiful addition to your home or office art collection.
The auction for this sculpture reads, “NOW’S YOUR CHANCE TO OWN THE AMAZINGLY CRAFTED GLASS WORK BY LANGHAM GLASS OF NORFOLK, ENGLAND! Revel in the unrivaled technique and careful attention to detail! Enliven your home or office today by bidding to win this extraordinary piece! Small Elephant Grey is a hand blown glass sculpture that is hand signed! Measures approx: 3.50 (length) X 2.50 (height).
“Langham Glass lineage can be traced back directly to King’s Lynn Glass. Paul Miller (Master Glass-maker) studied his trade there in his early years, with a group of notable European glass-makers. Working alongside these accomplished artisans was key to the reputation for excellence that Langham Glass now embodies. Later Wedgewood acquired King’s Lynn Glass and around this time Paul designed and created many of the animals and paperweights which are now in high demand by collectors. His goal of establishing his own business was met when he found suitable premises in Langham.”
