Stenella Auctions is honored to present the upcoming sale of the estate of the late George E. Harrison III. Known alongside his wife Linda as one of the foremost collectors of Americana, George's passion extended beyond period antiques to include Colonial Williamsburg furniture and decor. His expertise in Kittinger furniture and Williamsburg-style pieces was showcased through their business, Americana Interiors, which they operated for over 40 years.
Their home was more than just a residence; it was a meticulously curated showroom, akin to a museum. George was renowned for his unique approach to engaging buyers, offering not only exceptional items but also an educational and immersive buying experience. The list of distinguished clients he worked with over the years is extensive.
Following George's passing in March 2024, several years after Linda's death, his estate is being offered at auction with a special purpose. George and Linda had no children but shared a deep love for their bulldogs. In honor of their beloved pets, George stipulated that the proceeds from the estate auction be donated to the SPCA and other charities benefiting animals.
In October 2024, Stenella Auctions will host a public auction of George and Linda's exceptional collection. This sale will feature a range of rare and sought-after items, many of which have never been offered before.
This auction presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire significant period pieces, rare collectibles, and exclusive items from a distinguished collection, all without reserve. Everything will be sold to the highest bidder, with all proceeds benefiting a noble cause.
Be sure to explore this extraordinary sale. With numerous rare offerings, grouped dealer lots, and opportunities for both dealers and collectors, this is an event not to be missed.
