Boston, Massachusetts – November 1, 2016 – The Curator’s Eye (TCE) has announced their next virtual live auction which will be held on November 30th. This will be The Curator’s Eye’s third virtual auction, presenting an impressive catalog of jewelry from Ancient and Ethnographic history. This auction is a continuation of TCE’s move into virtual art auctions, where they are creating a new model in a tradition-bound industry. In this new model, TCE provides dealers with the ability to reach a worldwide audience, previously only available through larger auction houses. Dealers have become the seller and are in direct contact with buyers. Buyers can bid with confidence, as this auction is being sponsored by dealers with very high standards for integrity and art.

With no buyer’s premium (0%) and low starting bids and low reserves, this is an excellent opportunity for buyers to obtain exceptional pieces of jewelry, as well as take home a piece of history.

Live bidding will be available at curatorseye.com/ as well as LiveAuctioneers.com  and Invaluable.com .

On November 30th, the auction will feature a fine selection of jewelry, including Pre-Columbian necklaces and Ethnographic beadwork from the Naga people of South East Asia.
