The John Coultis Estate Auction

What an auction this was!!

John Coultis founded John Coultis Design in 1949 and the firm is still going strong today. John worked in the business for more than 60 years and during that time he collected outstanding antique furniture, mid-century modern furniture, architectural items, and all kinds of related items. We are honored to bring this collection to the market. John attended Missouri Military Academy and served our country before being accepted into the Parsons School of Design in New York. After graduating from Parsons he decided to come back to Wichita for a year. That year turned into 60, and during that time John worked on commercial, corporate and residential projects. Some of his more interesting projects were several private jets and multiple US Embassies around the globe including embassies in Italy, Germany, Ireland and Morocco.

Some of the highlights of the auction include more than 30 oil paintings (many by listed artists).

There are more than 75 architectural and garden antique lots.

The antique furniture is extremely diverse including a pair of Italian Grotto tete-a-tete, English and French Oak including Gothic pieces and cabinets with carved figures and busts, Italian carved and gilded tables, Baker furniture, a French Art Nouveau Vitrine, Biedermeier, Mission Oak and lots of chairs. A LOT OF CHAIRS!

January Art and Antiques/Steve and Judy Ball Moving Auction

For the second time in just a few months we are honored and humbled to be asked to sell the collection of a long time colleague. I have known Steve and Judy Ball for more than 20 years and have always thought that I wanted to be like them when I grow up. Their knowledge of antiques, art, collectibles and decorative arts are only second to their willingness to share with a one time newbie like me.
Steve and Judy have sold their 4,000 square foot building and when that happens stuff needs to go! We sold more than 400 lots of artwork, furniture, folk art, decorative items and more. The list is really too long to detail here but one of my favorite groups of items in the auction is Steve’s collection of early Kansas City photographs. None of these have been for sale before.
