LOS ANGELES, CA.- The collection of hundreds of French and American art glass treasures from the estate of former fashion model and prolific 1950s and 1960s film and television actress, Lori Nelson (1933-2020), will be offered at auction in Los Angeles and online by Goldberg Coins & Collectibles on October 8, 2026.
The collection includes art glass by Tiffany, Gallé, Steuben, Daum Nancy, and other prominent artists of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
“Before, during, and after her career with Universal Pictures, Lori Nelson was a passionate collector who assembled one of the largest private collections of French and American art glass. She took extreme care to preserve and secure her treasures. In fact, because of the precautions she took, all but one of her more than 300 art glass items safely survived intact the 6.7 magnitude Northridge earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994,” said Freeman Fisher, Goldberg Coins & Collectibles Director of Collectibles…
