Ann Beard Estate Auction — Indiana Art Glass, Jewelry, & Estate Contents | Closes March 16 Ann Beard spent 38 years shaping young minds in the first and second grade classrooms of Greenstreet Elementary School in New Castle. She was a Ball State graduate, a lifelong Henry County resident, and someone who treated everyone around her — students, colleagues, hospital gift shop patrons — with genuine warmth. The estate she left behind reflects that same quiet thoughtfulness: a home filled over a lifetime with pieces that meant something.
The centerpiece of this auction is a remarkable collection of Indiana studio art glass. Joe Rice — the beloved Anderson, Indiana glassblower — is represented across more than a dozen signed and dated examples from 1989 through 1998: five-flower paperweights, controlled bubble designs, sulfide figures, a stopper bottle, a Christmas bell, and more. Alongside Rice's work you'll find pieces by Monte Dunleavy, Bart Zimmerman, Eicholt, Prestige Glass, SignatureArt by Butler of Anderson, Kerry Glass, Troutman, Joe St. Clair, Viking Glass, and Fenton. For anyone who collects Indiana art glass, this auction is worth your full attention.
The jewelry offering is equally serious. Multiple solid gold lots include 14k Italian bracelets, a 14k Geneva ladies watch, gold wedding bands, earring sets, a 10k star sapphire ring, and more — all with documented weights. Silver collectors will find 1922 and 1923 Peace Silver Dollars and sterling silver charm bracelets. Throughout the rest of the estate you'll find quality furniture, a Bose Wave Music System, Corelle and Corningware kitchen sets, a GE washer and dryer, a Kenmore sewing machine with cabinet, handmade quilts, Boyds Bears, and the full, well-kept contents of a home that was cared for right up until the end.
