Our Story

Caleb is the only appraiser in Atlantic Canada qualified through the International Society of Appraisers (ISA) as an Accredited Appraiser with a Fine Arts Specialty. He consults on private and public collections around the region.

Sarah is a curator and art historian. She conducted her graduate research on twentieth-century Canadian art and Nova Scotian artist, Maud Lewis, and has taught art history courses at University of New Brunswick Saint John since 2010.

 

Location

Jones Auction House is headquartered in Saint John, New Brunswick, in the historic Palatine Building. The Palatine was built in 1878 for the Bank of Nova Scotia, and is now part of the Saint John’s Trinity Royal Heritage Preservation Area. With polished granite pillars and imaginatively carved keystones, the Palatine is an important element of the Prince William streetscape, known for its significant concentration of 19th-century Italianate and Second Empire architecture.
