A reputable Auction Housd
Ii had bid, and purchased 2 ZTiffany Desk Set pieces: A pine Needle Pattern Adjusting Bookshelf and a Grapevine Pattern “squat” 6” diameter Inkwell w/green favrile glass. Both pieces were carefully packaged, arrived safely, in pristine condition. I have been in the Antiques Business for more than 35 years. No longer selling turn of the century furniture, but Tiffany Studios Desk Set pieces. The two extremely rare items that I received from Fontaine’s are exceptional. Many thanks to John, Johnny, and Mia. Best regards, Nicholas

Fontaine sets the bar very high as the best auction gallery on any site
First time buying from Fontaines not the last. Quality of auction items excellent. accuuite descriptions. ease at check out and very well packed. I have been buying at auction for 40 years. I do not write reviews often. Few auction houses left this good. In my opinion their condition report and description and items authentic claim I trust. thank you all at fontaines for your job well done

Attribution
Item was listed with an attribution. Item is signed by someone other than the attributed pottery, tho the listing neglected to mention that and photos avoided the visible signature. The glaze on the interior is chipping to show a different finish underneath. Maybe an oversight or maybe intentional deception to raise bids-but disappointing either way.

This was my first time dealing with Fontaine's Auction Gallery. They were absolutely superb do deal with regarding every aspect of the transaction-from answering questions before the auction and for prompt shipping with excellent packing after the auction. Very helpful and professional in every way. I highly recommend.

Great experience
Good auction house. Items were in exceptional condition, and their local UPS store did a great job on the pack and ship. Will buy again with confidence.

Creative packing indicating "fragile" on outside of box!
Very happy with this lot. Folks in shipping had to do some creative packing and the items were secure and safe. I appreciated their shipping department indicating "fragile" on the box-one always hopes the carriers will honor that designation by being gentle and careful. I like this auction house. Very helpful front office staff, guided me through the process of payment. Totally reasonable shipping cost. Thanks, Fontaine Auction Gallery staff!
