We assist with:
- Full estate auctions

Our auctions offer transparent pricing, documented results, and a clear timeline — helping reduce uncertainty for everyone involved.
Full Estate Auctions
A full estate auction typically involves selling the majority or entirety of a household’s contents. These auctions often arise during estate settlement, major downsizing, or when a residence must be cleared efficiently.
Full estate auctions may include:
- Furniture and furnishings
- Decorative arts and décor
- Glass, ceramics, and metalwork
- Artwork, collectibles, and memorabilia
- Jewelry, watches, and personal property
Crafted Auctions organizes full estates carefully, grouping items logically and presenting them clearly so buyers can navigate the auction with confidence.
Partial Estate Auctions & Downsizing
Not every estate requires full liquidation. Partial estate auctions allow Southeast Michigan families to sell selected items while retaining others of personal or sentimental importance.
Common scenarios include:
- Downsizing prior to a move
- Dividing property among heirs
- Selling higher-value items separately
- Reducing large households or collections
Partial auctions provide flexibility while still benefiting from professional auction exposure and competitive bidding.
Private Estate & Collection Auctions
Many estates in Southeast Michigan include private collections built over decades — often reflecting personal passions or focused collecting areas.
Collection auctions may include:
- Art, pottery, or art glass collections
- Jewelry and luxury watch collections
- Decorative arts or furniture collections
- Memorabilia and specialty collectibles
Presenting collections cohesively allows buyers to recognize quality, context, and continuity, which often leads to stronger overall results.
