Mr. Matossian’s passion for vintage objects and his “ make it right” attitude gives him a unique perspective during the Fine Jewelry preview. All preview attendees are welcome to ask Mr. Matossian about objects in the sale. Some items included are in perfect condition and others have been gently loved over the years. He can provide his opinion on condition, restoration or value in the marketplace.
The Skinner Jewelry Auction provides two full preview days, as well as their online catalog (below). The Live Auction is always scheduled on a Tuesday. If you plan on a visit to Skinner’s Park Plaza location for the preview, Mr. Matossian is only available on the Sunday prior, from 12 to 5pm.
