The Fine Interiors Auction, taking place on November 20th, is anchored by an important estate designed by the renowned interior design firm Parish-Hadley Associates.

Founded by Sister Parish and Albert Hadley in the mid-20th century, Parish-Hadley became synonymous with refined American elegance. Their work — an artful balance of tradition, comfort, and modernity — defined an entire era of high society design, gracing the homes of figures such as Jacqueline Kennedy, Brooke Astor, and Oscar de la Renta. The firm’s influence extended beyond decoration to shaping the very language of American interior style.

This particular estate beautifully reflects Parish-Hadley’s signature blend of sophistication and warmth. Highlights include a set of four silver-gilt “strawberry boxes” made for Tiffany & Co., estimated at $2,500–$3,500, and a pair of Maison Baguès lights, estimated at $1,200–$1,800.

Also featured are elegant pieces by Ann Getty Designs, a watercolor by Lee Radziwill, and an array of refined tableware, including Georg Jensen sterling, Baccarat stemware, and a charming Victorian Santa sleigh.

Adding to the sale’s appeal is a cased Victorian half hull builder’s model of the SS Beverly by Workman Clark HD, Belfast, estimated at $4,000–$6,000. This rare and finely crafted model represents the golden age of shipbuilding and maritime engineering, exemplifying the precision and artistry characteristic of late 19th-century craftsmanship. The auction continues with fine carpets, coins, and music boxes, all offering a glimpse into a cultivated lifestyle.
