About
Treasures Of The Crown
The rare groupings
of artwork and antiques in the Treasures Of The Crown collection
have been lovingly brought to the South by partners, Mr. Jim Harden
& Mr. Trey Clegg, who have spent the better part of their 8+
year union collecting such items. Throughout numerous European visits,
Mr. Clegg and Mr. Harden discovered the fine porcelains of the Italian
nobility to be their passion. However, it was on a trip to New York
City where they discovered and purchased their first piece of Capo
di Monte (hereinafter referred to as Capo) in a small shop off of
Central Park.
Realizing
their first piece of Capo was a fine addition to their home, they
set out to expand their collection. One of the striking discoveries
they have made about Capo is its minute detail. With closer examination,
the porcelains truly come to life. Each piece, of course, is one
of a kind and each is exquisite. After filling their home with several
pieces of Capo and Silver Statuary, Mr. Harden and Mr. Clegg felt
that it was time to share these remarkable works with the city of
Atlanta and its surrounding areas. While not wishing to turn their
home into a museum, it was obvious that the next best thing to do
was to open a gallery... a special place where art lovers and collectors
could not only see the fine works of Capo and other sculptors, but
also be able to purchase these items for their personal enjoyment.
Understanding that each item has a descending line that has met
royalty at some point, Treasures of the Crown was born.
Both Mr. Clegg
and Mr. Harden invite you to share in this rich collection of some
of the finest porcelain and silver sculpture that has touched the
lives of royalty throughout the centuries, and which is now carefully
presented in our great metropolitan city.
