Palmer's Auction to offer 199 antique estate jewelry lots Feb 17 online

Roughly 199 lots of antique and estate jewelry crossed Palmer’s Auction Co.’s online block in a live sale that opened Feb 17 at 6:00 p.m. EST. The catalog, published and hosted on Feb 17, presented a compact but varied selection described as “consigned from all local estates” and “all fresh to the market for the first time.”

Among the sale’s illustrated highlights were a c.1900 sterling silver “Dragon’s Breath” glass brooch with a Greek Key border and a signed vintage sterling silver Navajo-style turquoise statement ring, both cited on Palmer’s EstateSales and LiveAuctioneers pages. The house also offered timepieces and coins cataloged alongside jewelry, including an Antique Hampden Watch Co. gold-filled Hornell NY pocket watch, noted as circa 1879 patent, and a Silver Morgan Dollar coin lot of four circulated U.S. coins dated 1880-1886. LiveAuctioneers additionally listed a WW2-era jewelry lot among the house’s entries.

Logistics were clearly spelled out on the EstateSales listing: “Pre-bidding starts 1/21, and live online auction starts 2/17 at 6pm EST. Pick up one day only - Thursday 2/19/26 10-1pm.” Pre-bidding was shown as beginning Jan 21, the year implied by the Feb 17, 2026 sale date, and the auction page reiterated a single, limited pickup window on Thursday, Feb 19 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Condition and sale terms were also posted on the catalog page. The listing advised bidders to “Please use photos for visual grading, as everyone has different opinions on condition. All sales are final. If you have questions, please contact us directly.” That language frames the sale as a traditional estate-auction offering where visual inspection of lot images is the primary tool for assessing wear, repairs, and authenticity claims.

Palmer’s digital footprint extends to LiveAuctioneers, where the seller page shows 70 bidder reviews and recent reviewer comments such as “Mike Bridge City, TX — Great auction house” and “Bob Snohomish, WA — Great.” Both the EstateSales.NET and LiveAuctioneers captures indicate Palmer’s uses multiple platforms to reach bidders, with past and upcoming listings ranging from Art Deco brooches and Tiffany & Co. pieces to coins and watches.

Notably absent from the captured catalog text were lot numbers, a pickup address, buyer’s premium, payment methods, and any post-sale results or hammer prices. The original catalog copy supplied for review also contained a truncated sentence - “The catalog text emphasizes pro” - leaving some promotional language incomplete in the available capture.

For bidders and collectors drawn to early-20th-century workmanship and fresh-to-market estate material, Palmer’s Feb 17 sale assembled desirable categories in a single online session. Confirm lot numbers, high-resolution images, buyer’s premium, and pickup or shipping arrangements with Palmer’s Auction Co. before committing to bids on future sales.
