Maura Lindsay, the owner of Trésor Estate Sales is an antiques and interior decoration aficionado with an entrepreneurial spirit. Moving to Newport over 20 years ago, Maura reconnected with her passion for antiques while decorating her new home. She took a part time position in an antiques shop which inevitably lead Maura into the resale business. From this position in the antique shop to working in regional auction houses and ultimately opening her own shop in her Connecticut barn, Maura has gained critical knowledge in the identification, valuation, organization and selling of antiques and vintage items from fine furniture and decoration to vintage automobiles (a love passed down to me by my father).
With a similar enthusiasm for interior decoration (two of her homes have appeared in home decor magazines), Maura has renovated and redecorated more than 12 homes in over a 20 year period. These experiences have provided her with a broad knowledge in the valuation of contemporary furnishings and decorations.
