Chippendale tilt-top candlestand, $15,400.

WINDSOR, CONN. – Connecticut furniture from the estate of well-known Hartford conservator Paul Koda (1905-2001), plus weathervanes deaccessioned by the Antiquarian and Landmarks Society, drew a standing-room-only crowd to Nadeau’s Auction Gallery on Saturday, September 29.

The sale, Nadeau’s most successful ever, grossed $1.23 million. The auctioneer is shown here with an unusual triangular maple and cherry dropleaf table. The winning bid, executed by the house, was $34,500 including premium.

A full report of this sale will appear in a future issue of Antiques and The Arts Weekly.
