Thomaston Place Auction Galleries will conduct an online-only live auction Wednesday, March 29, which will include an amazing diversity of decorative and collectible items, all with modest opening bids. All participants must register before placing bids.

The sale will be conducted simultaneously on three online auction sites: Thomaston Place Auction Galleries’ own platform, Thomaston Live; LiveAuctioneers, and BidSquare. This 550-lot sale will offer original artwork, furniture, ephemera, Asian art, time pieces, china & pottery, art glass, lighting, and many other decorative and collectible items. Items can be viewed online beginning on March 15, and participants can register and place pre-auction (or absentee) bids any time prior to 11 a.m. EST on March 29 when the live online auction is set to begin.  Registered participants may place online bids on items as they come up for sale.

Thomaston Place owner and auctioneer Kaja Veilleux noted: “This exciting new format gives bidders the excitement of participating in a live auction from wherever they are. And, the diversity of items, all offered unreserved, makes this a sale that no one should miss.”
