A Century of Glass: Heritage's Spring Design Auctions Span Art Nouveau Mastery to Contemporary Studio Innovation
Across two consecutive Design auctions this spring, Heritage presents a sweeping survey of glass as both material and muse, tracing its evolution from the poetic naturalism of the early 20th century to the bold and expressive forms of today’s leading studio artists. The April 30 Early 20th Century Design Signature® Auction and the May 1 Modern Design Signature® Auction together form a narrative that spans more than a hundred years of innovation.
If the earlier-era sale establishes the foundation, the May 1
Modern Design auction makes the case for glass as one of the defining artistic mediums of the last half-century. Bringing together pioneers of the studio glass movement and leading contemporary makers, the auction highlights the material’s capacity to capture light, movement and emotion with unmatched immediacy.
“Contemporary glass is one of the most dynamic collecting areas, routinely attracting new, unexpected bidders from across Heritage’s 50-plus categories in addition to a community of dedicated, established collectors,” says Samantha Robinson, Heritage’s Vice President of Design. “This season we are proud to present multiple works by three titans of the medium: Tagliapietra, Chihuly and Powell. Of particular note is the diverse Tagliapietra selection, which boasts one of the most technically triumphant examples of the Dinosaur, fine examples of the Stromboli and Bahia
series and the first two-dimensional panel to come to auction. Our May 1 auction further cements Heritage Auctions as a destination for collectors of contemporary glass, both as consignors and as bidders.”

Bid Protection
Bid Protection allows you to ensure you are not outbid by automatically increasing your bid to the next full increment if you are outbid during the live event. This protects you from being "sniped" by a single increment. Bid Protection can be entered on all items except the current lot and the next upcoming lot in a Live Auction.
Note: The extra increment won't be placed until the item is up for live bidding, so it is possible that you could be outbid by a bid placed prior to live bidding, such as another proxy bid, live proxy bid, mail bid, etc., which could result in your losing the lot by that one increment. For the same reason, it is also possible that a currently losing bid with bid protection placed could potentially win the lot once the lot is subject to live bidding and the Bid Protection increment(s) is placed. |
Buyer's premium
A Buyer's Premium is charged in addition to the successful bid. The applicable Buyer's Premium for bids placed with Heritage for this Auction is 25% of the successful bid (minimum $49) per lot.. |
 |
Heritage Live! allows you to place late proxy bids and compete live against the auction floor from your PC or mobile device*. We recommend placing proxy bids before the live session in the unlikely event either side experiences technical problems during the auction.
Note: Proxy bidding ends ten minutes prior to the session start time. Live Proxy bidding on Heritage Live now starts within 2 hours of when the auction opens for proxy bidding and continues through the live session. |
