Bridgehampton, NY Time Capsule Home - Part II - 50 Reasons to 'I Spy' the Estate of Jay Paul

BRG'S ESTATE COLLECTION I SPY

Who says only children can enjoy a good ‘I spy’ game? Certainly not Black Rock Galleries. We thought it might be fun to present this estate collection in a new fashion.

In the BRG estate version of I Spy, we take a look at a June 1982 edition of House in the Hamptons magazine article featuring the fabulous Bridgehampton, NY home of Jay Paul.

Can you I Spy your way through The Estate Collection of Jay Paul which closes on October 5? What you can spy with your grown-up eye?

#estateIspy

In the Dining Room

I spy with my grown-up eye…

A faux finish table with 8 dining chairs,

Silverware services in numerous pairs,

A marble countertop from the louvered buffet,

All upon a rug a mile from the bay,

A vintage brass coal scuttle with lion head handles,

A vintage epergne and stands for candles,

A red-crested Rosenthal blue bird ready to nest,

Various dishes to complement the rest,

… And pretty glassware for dinner parties – all blacktie.

In the Foyer

I spy with my grown-up eye…

An Andre Saturne flowering tree so bright,

A vintage Jay Yang design in blue, gold, red, and white,

A decorative Japanese dish that’s very pretty,

A fun wooden end table – not so itty bitty,

An Anatole Cypriot painting of a celebratory march,

A Chinese polychrome deity figure before the arch,

A carved sculpted rider upon his mighty steed,

An ebonized mirror reflecting all he’d see,

Black gondola chairs peek in from the room beyond,

A Chinese bulbous brass vase for flower and frond,

… And antique oil-lamp swan sconces to light nearby.

In the Sun Room & Kitchen

I spy with my grown-up eye…

A tall Hatian carved wood sculpture guarding the door,

Near paint decorated bamboo form stools x4,

The ‘guard’ sits upon his marble pedestal perch,

Near Gabriel Bien-Aime’s metal sea creatures, if you search,

Two Louis XVI style brass tack-trimmed settees,

A large chimney glass shade with eagle etched neatly,

A glass cocktail table of faux bamboo in gold,

With vintage decorative curiosities – to display or hold,

… And vintage embossed metal plates to make you sigh.

In the Living Room

I spy with my grown-up eye…

A wrought iron sculptural crane that stands so tall,

Janvier Louis Juste sheet metal art upon the wall,

A pair of Regency style sofas with animal print gondola chairs,

Some decorative candlesticks x2 pairs,

Monumental MCM lamps with giant black shades,

Royal Crown Derby Imari dishes elegantly displayed.

A vintage vinyl record collection sounds so good,

A repeat of the Haitian carved sculpture made of wood,

… And four hand-painted giraffes with heads way up high.

Outside with the Pool & Patio

I spy with my grown-up eye…

A pair of fab life-size poodles in lieu of lifeguards,

Old, weathered garden benches for the yard,

Vintage cast aluminum chairs for outdoor livin’,

A large,but fun garden statuary griffin

A fruit basket statue on a pedestal behind the tree

An ornate cast aluminum hose reel that you can’t see

... And plenty of other outdoor things for you to buy.
