LAMPETER, PENN. & ONLINE – One of the highlights of the debut website sale by William R. & Teresa F. Kurau Historical Staffordshire was an open vegetable dish with blue transfer images of the “Hartford Deaf & Dumb Asylum” by Ridgway’s “Beauties of America Series.” The piece dated to circa 1825, measured 12¼ by 9¼ inches and was in good condition. It came from the estate collection of Calman J. “Buddy” Zamoiski Jr, whose collection of more than 150 pieces formed a sizable portion of the sale, which was conducted on March 5 in a fixed-price online show on the Kurau’s website www.historicalchina.com. The dish was purchased by a client new to the Kuraus who lives in Connecticut with the purpose of adding it to a museum archival collection. Jonathan Kurau said that pieces from the series bring anywhere from $100 to in excess of $5,500 depending on scene, form and condition; he said this particular dish had a value around $1,000.
Watch for a more extensive online show review in a future issue.
