| Joan Bogart has been in the antiques
business since the mid 1970's. She has always specialized in high
style 19thC American Furniture Chandeliers and
Accessories. Joan has appeared and has lectured on the subject for
museums and symposiums, been on TV with her collections, and has
been written up in articles both in Victorian Homes and Old House
Interior's, The New York Times & Newsday, as well as numerous
antiques periodicals. That is why when Martin Sorcesese was creating
"The Age of Innocence " she was contacted and furnished
the elegant and wealthy grandmother's home. Both her lighting,
furniture, and accessories were in this movie. All of these items
have been sold but similar items are in inventory. Joan has also
rented to "Washington Square", and most recently to Steven
Spielberg's "Amistad" . In that movie her lighting was
especially important, and when the interior of the "White
House" was shown her argand lamps were prominently placed on
the mantle, & are currently in inventory as are most of the
astral lamps rented to the movie. However, the studio did purchase
antiques for a prop warehouse they were opening.
Museums have also bought heavily
form Joan over the years, including, The Metropolitan Museum of Art,
The Smithsonian Museum, The High Museum of Art, The Museum of Fine
Arts in Houston, The Strong Museum, The Louisiana State Museum, The
Governor's Mansion for the State of Mo. The Treasury Dep't. along
with numerous Southern and Mid- Western House Museums.
Now via the internet these
beautiful antiques are accessible to you. There are many price
levels available in her extensive inventory, and she is willing to
work within your budget. Joan Bogart's gallery is presently located
in a suburb of N.Y.C. and is 20 min. from Kennedy Airport. Joan
welcomes you to visit this 1800 SQ FT gallery in Rockville Centre.
Unfortunately, her inventory is too extensive to put entirely on the
internet, but she will send photos upon request. Joan looks forward
to working with you.
