CANAAN, CONN. — The estate of Lester A. Hoysradt was one of several estates featured in the 412-lot auction conducted by State Line Auctions & Estate Services on Sunday, August 11. Topping the sale at $3,540 with buyer’s premium was a group of three jade items. One was a lobed, dark-green dish, with ring handles at either end, on a carved-wood base. It was accompanied by a green-gray covered vessel on a carved-wood base and a similarly colored relief-carved vase with foliate decoration. More highlights from this auction, which was more than 95 percent sold by lot, will be discussed in an upcoming issue.
