Pair of Tole Chargers - From the Collection of Ann Gordon Getty
Located in Scottsdale, AZ
Fabulous pair of late 18th century English-Tole, Japanned chinoiserie, Charger Plates owned by Ann and Gordon Getty. Hand-painted, stenciled, and gilded floral motifs in brown, gold, and black hues. Part of the personal collection of Ann and Gordon Getty, purchased at Christie's South Kensington Auction on June 25, 1997; Lot 687. A treasured find for collectors and enthusiasts of unique and one-of-a-kind pieces with a story to tell! Ann Getty was a paleoanthropologist, arts patron, interior designer, author, and one of America’s most legendary tastemakers. She married Gordon Getty, the 4th son of oil tycoon J. Paul Getty, billionaire philanthropist and classical music composer. They were chic, intellectual, San Francisco socialites, who spent a lifetime supporting and advocating for the arts, music, science, and education. The J. Paul Getty Museum, Getty Center, and Getty Villa exhibit J. Paul Getty’s private art and antiquity collections, the J. Paul Getty Trust fund is the world’s wealthiest art institution. Anne was raised on a farm in northern California, then graduated from UC Berkeley with dual degrees in biology and anthropology. She worked on and passionately supported archaeological digs in Ethiopia and Turkey, searching for human fossils and artifacts, studying genetics and DNA structures. She was unpretentious, hands on, physically and intellectually in synch with scholarly scientists, craftsmen, and artists. There’s a photo of her restoring an ancient buffalo’s fossilized horns at the National Museum of Ethiopia. These very same personality traits and mannerisms, her curiosity, keen eye, and great attention to detail are apparent in her approach to collecting furniture, art, textiles, pottery, etc. She spent decades fully immersing herself, studying international art and antiques, first a student, then connoisseur. She knew the provenance and story behind every piece she bought. She taught herself by observing, experimenting, and absorbing everything. She employed artists that became her greatest teachers. Before launching her interior design firm, she hired legendary designers, Albert Hadley and Sister Parish, and John Stefanidis to design her San Francisco estate in Pacific Heights, an early 1900’s sprawling Italianate mansion with views of the golden gate bridge, designed by architect Willis Polk. The estate was nicknamed the “San Francisco Embassy” for its lavish political and cultural parties. Shortly after opening her interior firm, she launched The Ann Getty House Collection, offering original and authentic furniture reproductions from her own collections and inspiration, produced by Luis Rossi, of L. Rossi Antiques...
