DOUGLASS, Kan. - Nov. 18, 2022 - PRLog -- Woody Auction's final antique sale of 2022, on Saturday, December 3^rd, promises to have something for everyone, with a catalog brimming with more than 400 lots in a wide array of categories. "The last in-person event of the year is as eclectic as any auction we've ever done, and is a combination of numerous collections from around the world," said Jason Woody of Woody Auction.

Highlights include quality jewelry, art glass, Gone with the Wind lamps, furniture, Limoges, Pickard, bronzes, plated Amberina, English cameo, clocks, Tiffany, Stevens & Williams, carousel horses, folk art, and one of the largest artwork collections Woody Auction has sold in decades. As with past Woody auctions, all items will be offered to the public without reserves.

A green cut to clear decanter by Stevens & Williams, 10 inches tall, in the incredible figural butterfly form, is the first example of its type that Woody Auction has ever had the privilege to see and sell and is exceptionally rare. Also sold will be a Louis C. Tiffany art glass vase, 4 inches tall, beautifully decorated in gold iridescence with millefiori heart and vine décor.

The most historically significant item in the sale is an eight-sided revolving hardware cabinet made from oak with 88 drawers and porcelain drawer pulls, all original, 39 inches tall by 26 inches wide. The painted decoration on top of the cabinet reads, "Custer/Tuebor" (Latin for "I Will Defend", in the shape of a Maltese Cross, designed after a privately made Custer medal.

General George Armstrong Custer designed the medal himself during his brigade's winter encampment at Stevenson, Virginia in 1863-1864. The Horstmann Company was founded in 1815. It was taken over by William Horstmann's sons in 1845 and became the largest supplier of military goods in The Civil War. The winning bidder will own a piece of American history.

A preview will be held on Friday, December 2^nd, from 1-5 Central time, also in the auction hall.
