Icons of Design: The Estate of Miriam Parkes, Beverly Hills
A Beverly Hills collection — featuring David Webb, Francisco Toledo and a wardrobe of fine jewelry
Beyond the gates, beneath the palms, a private world of glamour hidden from view until now — a legendary residence in the Beverly Hills flats, where fashion, art, jewelry and design defined a life of unmistakable style. Dazzling jewelry. An enviable collection of fashion. Exceptional art, fine silver, furnishings and objects collected with an extraordinary eye.

Los Angeles
Since 1916.
A. N. Abell opened its doors the year the city was still building itself, and the same family has run it ever since. Four generations of auctioneers, one trade, one city.
The specialty has never really changed: the single-owner estate. When a house in Pasadena or Hancock Park or Malibu is closed up, someone has to decide what the contents are worth and find the people who want them.
