| 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 3000 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.
