Online Only Decorative Arts

The Online Only Decorative Arts auction, presented by Pook & Pook, features pieces ranging from armoires to ethnographic art. Among the key lots is a Pennsylvania hard pine schrank. Popular in the 18th century, schranks were a type of armoire that typically held clothing and bedroom linens. One of their distinct features was a quick assembly and disassembly, in case of frequent moving. Pook & Pook notes that there are some non-period parts of this schrank.

Another decorative piece featured in this auction is a 19th-century jelly cupboard. A term originating in the Midwest, a jelly cupboard is a kitchen storage unit with two drawers and two doors. The piece retains its original blue paint with some wear. Those interested in other household items can consider a sterling silver tea service, which comes with a plated tray. Representing ethnographic art in this event is a Southeast Asian carved stone stele. View each of the mentioned lots and register to bid on Bidsquare.
