A highlight of the auction includes unique pieces from New Hope, Pennsylvania craftsman Gino Russo. A hand-crafted dining table with a glass top on a sculpted base, accompanied by high ladderback chairs with rope seats, demonstrates Russo's skill in blending traditional techniques with modern aesthetics. A custom-made sideboard and hutch, signed and dated by Russo, offers insight into his personal design philosophy. The auction also offers a Charles and Ray Eames lounge chair and ottoman for Herman Miller, featuring molded rosewood shells and black leather upholstery. This classic piece, dating from the 1960s, exemplifies the Eames' innovative approach to comfort and style.

Art enthusiasts will find a diverse selection of works, including paintings, prints, and sculptures. Notable artists featured include Romain de Tirtoff (Erté), known for his Art Deco fashion illustrations, and Sterling Boyd Strauser, represented by an oil painting titled "Table Top Arrangement" from 1989.
