A glazed rarity at Adam’s interior sale in Dublin

A glazed pottery tobacco jar and cover by the Martin Brothers is a highlight of the James Adam sale of fine period interiors in Dublin at 12pm tomorrow.

Martin Brothers pieces have a long history of collectibility. There was a new record established at Phillips in New York last December when a bird jar modelled in May 1889 as Benjamin Disraeli sold for $190,000 (€170,000).
