A Smashing Sale

QAP0055

The Englishman Fine Art & Antiques, currently located at the Galleries of Peachtree Hills in Atlanta, is holding an extraordinary moving sale, starting today and continuing through Monday, November 23 (excluding Sunday). A notice on the sale we received this morning touted discounts of up to 60 percent on select merchandise, which is an incredible deal considering the treasures to be found in this two-story showroom. (You may remember the shopping story we ran on The Galleries last March–and all of the fineries we uncovered). One category this shop specializes in is 18th-, 19th-, and 20th-century European oil paintings–one of the largest collections in the United States. And although the name can be a bit misleading, suggesting that the store carries only English art and antiques, when I was last in the store, I was amazed at the unique selection of intricately carved Dutch and Flemish case pieces, gilded oversize French convex mirrors (à la Greenbrier Hotel writing room) and luminous Italian landscapes. Gallery Director George Getlik and Gallery Manager Rachel Evans (an artist in her own right), are just as delightful as the inventory itself.

Stop by during gallery hours: 9 a.m. – 6 p.m. weekdays and 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. Saturday to survey what’s in store. Nearly all shops and galleries at The Galleries of Peachtree Hills are open to the public.

425 Peachtree Hills Ave. NE, Atlanta 30305. (404) 869-3175; theenglishmanusa.com
