Treasures from Many Homes: An Online Estate Auction
Treasures from Many Homes
Somewhere between a farmhouse in Henry County and a parlor in Madison County, four households decided it was time to let go. What they left behind tells four separate stories — a collector of coins and currency, a connoisseur of fine glass and china, a lover of good books and art, and a keeper of quality furnishings — and Burgess Auctions has brought all of it together in a single online event.
Treasures from Many Homes is exactly what it sounds like: Over 300 lots drawn from multiple estates and consignments, ranging from Waterford crystal and Haviland Limoges fine china to Thomas Kinkade original oil on canvas, sterling silver by Frank M. Whiting & Co., Indiana-crafted Smith Brothers upholstered furniture, and a solid run of U.S. and world coins. Whether you collect, decorate, or simply appreciate the well-made and the well-loved, there is something here that was waiting for you.
Bidding is entirely online and closes Monday, April 20, 2026. Preview and pickup details are listed below — confirm current times before attending.
