LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Andrew Jones Auctions is honored to present an exceptional assemblage of European antiques, fine art, antiquities and luxury decorative objects brought together under the visionary eye of celebrated interior designer Craig Wright. The two-day auction will take place Wednesday and Thursday, May 20–21, online and live in the Andrew Jones gallery located at 2221 South Main Street in downtown Los Angeles.

Perched above the Pacific along the storied bluffs of Newport Coast, the estate served as a backdrop for a collection that seamlessly married the grandeur of European tradition with the luminous ease of California coastal living. Over the course of decades, every room was conceived as a considered composition — each object chosen not merely for its beauty or provenance, but for its conversation with the space around it.

More on The Californer

Craig Wright is widely recognized among the foremost decorators of his generation, celebrated for his ability to weave eclectic global influences into interiors of enduring refinement and warmth. His approach — deeply researched, acutely personal — has earned him a devoted international clientele and a reputation for spaces that feel at once historically resonant and unmistakably alive.

In this residence, Wright worked in creative partnership with the owner to assemble a collection that is at once deeply personal, rigorously curated and reflects decades of connoisseurship: antique Continental furniture of the highest quality, works of fine art, rich fabrics, Chinese and Japanese works of art, antiquities, fine silver and antique rugs, alongside decorative objects sourced from auctions, galleries, and private collections across Europe, as well as luxury appointments and elevated entertaining essentials.

The sale encompasses an extraordinary breadth of categories. Exceptional Continental and English period furniture — including a rare Sicilian Rococo parcel ebonized mother of pearl, shell and composition inlaid brown lacquer bombe commode ($40,000-$60,000) which is almost certainly a newly identified fourth example in a renowned suite of commodes.

Preview will be held in the Andrew Jones Auctions gallery in Los Angeles on May 16^th, 18^th and 19^th, from 10am-5pm Pacific Time.
