The sale of personal property from the estate of the poet, dancer and artist, Leslie Snow Feron, featuring the contents of the studio of her late husband, Louis Feron (1901-1998), internationally acclaimed master goldsmith, silversmith, jeweler, sculptor and muralist. These will be moved to the auction gallery for a public sale
Born in France, Feron trained as a sculptor in Paris where he was considered a master craftsman and received several awards and prizes before moving to Costa Rica in 1934. There he sharpened his skills even more gaining the attention of a visitor, Nelson Rockefeller, who encouraged him to move to New York in 1946. After opening a studio in Manhattan, he designed jewelry for some of the world greatest names in jewelry including Tiffany, Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Rubel, Verdura, Schlumberger, Bronzini and David Webb. He also did design work for Steuben Glass Co. as well as commissions for Clare Boothe Luce, Jacqueline Kennedy and philanthropist Paul Mellon. In 1967 the Ferons move to Snowville, NH, a small former mill town founded by Leslie Snow Feron’s ancestors. Working in a studio converted from a barn, they spent their remaining years there painting, sculpting and jewelry making.
