A Stately Estate of Timeless Elegance in Arlington

Elegance in every room! This Arlington home mixed stately Victorian pieces, refined traditional furniture and a dash of Mid-Century Modern, and the collections kept treasure hunters busy from the front door to the back porch. Highlights included an upright piano, a grandfather clock, a carved antique vanity with fringed boudoir lamps, a matching antique bed, and a dining table covered in teacups and miniature tea sets, plus a whole tabletop army of collectible teapots. Glass lovers found gold-rimmed goblets, cabinets of crystal stemware, blue Moon and Stars canister jars, green depression glass and uranium glass, and a silver-plate tea service. Add handmade patchwork and Double Wedding Ring quilts, an Underwood typewriter, a hand-painted mantel clock, trays of vintage brooches, needlepoint, barware, china and shelves full of books, and there was something here for every taste. The sale ran Friday 10am to 6pm, Saturday 10am to 5pm and Sunday noon to 4pm, with cash and cards accepted.
