By: Andrew Jones Auctions Perched above the Pacific along the storied bluffs of Newport Coast, the estate served as a backdrop for a collection that seamlessly married the grandeur of European tradition with the luminous ease of California coastal living. Over the course of decades, every room was conceived as a considered composition — each object chosen not merely for its beauty or provenance, but for its conversation with the space around it. Craig Wright is widely recognized among the foremost decorators of his generation, celebrated for his ability to weave eclectic global influences into interiors of enduring refinement and warmth. His approach — deeply researched, acutely personal — has earned him a devoted international clientele and a reputation for spaces that feel at once historically resonant and unmistakably alive. In this residence, Wright worked in creative partnership with the owner to assemble a collection that is at once deeply personal, rigorously curated and reflects decades of connoisseurship: The sale encompasses an extraordinary breadth of categories. Exceptional Continental and English period furniture — including a rare Sicilian Rococo parcel ebonized mother of pearl, shell and composition inlaid brown lacquer bombe commode ($40,000-$60,000) Preview will be held in the Andrew Jones Auctions gallery in Los Angeles on May 16th, 18th and 19th, from 10am-5pm Pacific Time.
