SESSION FIVE:
THE PERSONAL COLLECTION
OF ARTHUR BAGGS
Sunday, March 9
Immediately following
Session Four
I received a phone cal l from the Tweet family in November making good on a ten-year
past promise to contact me when they were ready to sel l their grandfather’s
col lection. I hadn’t been thinking about the col lection, much less that promise, and
was completely unprepared for the photos that fol lowed. Suzanne and I visited the
family in nor thern Connecticut soon af ter. It was astonishing to realize that I had
passed within a mile of this amazing selection of ceramics perhaps a hundred times
on trips to the Brimfield show and beyond.
We are delighted to of fer the personal col lection of Ar thur E. Baggs, including his
vases; an array of rare tiles; original ar t work both for vases and tiles; oils, water
colors, gouaches and more.
There is so little “undiscovered” material remaining from the Ar ts and Craf ts
Movement. We hope you enjoy the oppor tunity to see this col lection as much as we
have the oppor tunity to handle it and bring it to sale.

This spectacular panel comes from the Harris residence in Hancock,
Michigan. This wealthy family owned the Quincy copper mine, long the
deepest in the world. The twenty-six room English cottage they had built in
1910 was modernized in the 1950s. This frieze was careful ly removed and
stored at that time. It is only now coming to market.
