CHARLESTON, SC -- Doyle is pleased to announce our plans for a new gallery in Charleston, South Carolina. This expansion provides collectors, families and fiduciaries in Charleston and the Southeast with convenient access to Doyle’s full range of auction and appraisal services for collections and estates. We look forward to welcoming guests to Doyle’s newly renovated gallery in Charleston this winter.
“Doyle’s addition of a Charleston gallery is the result of thoughtful consideration of the local market, leaving room for future growth in this thriving city,” said Laura Doyle, CEO of Doyle. “We are thrilled to join the robust arts and culture community in Charleston and look forward to providing our new neighbors and old friends with services tailored to meet their needs.”
With the opening of our new gallery, Doyle will host consignment days featuring our team of Specialists, connoisseurship talks on a range of collecting topics, and preview exhibitions of property to be auctioned in New York and online to collectors around the globe.
Historic King Street Location
Doyle has commissioned Julia F. Martin Architects of Charleston to renovate our new gallery located in a circa 1888 building at 123 King Street. Glen R. Gardner Landscape Architect, also of Charleston, will design and install the landscaping.
Commenting on the renovation plan, the Preservation Society of Charleston stated, “Without historic photographs to inform restoration, Julia F. Martin Architects developed a sensitive plan to reimagine the storefront based on period examples along King Street, while stabilizing and rehabilitating the piazza. The project was approved by BAR (Board of Architectural Review) earlier this month, and the PSC was pleased to offer our support.”
Serving South Carolina Collectors and Families
Doyle has long been privileged to auction property from prominent estates and distinguished collections from South Carolina. We were honored to auction the Collection of best-selling author Dorothea Benton Frank, a native of Sullivan’s Island, South Carolina. This landmark sale featured furniture, decorations and artwork, as well as memorabilia related to her successful career as an author.
In a series of jewelry sales in New York this fall, Doyle will auction property from a Southampton, NY and Charleston, SC Estate featuring elegant jewelry by Bulgari, David Webb, Buccellati and Sterlé Paris, as well as fine watches by Cartier and Patek Philippe.
