## About Adrian Pearsall

Adrian Pearsall (1925–2011) was an American architect and furniture designer associated in the collected sources with mid-century furniture design. For collectors, his identity is most relevant when an object is presented as designed by Pearsall or connected to furniture and decorative-art markets. The available source pack supports his profession and broad period, but it does not document specific models, manufacturers, materials, exhibitions, awards, or a detailed chronology. This profile therefore avoids attributing particular chairs, sofas, tables, or other forms without stronger object-level evidence. Auction appearances should be matched by the public artist name and then checked against the individual lot description, images, dimensions, construction, markings, provenance, and stated attribution. Appraisily's public market page contains numerous matched records, which helps explain why collectors may encounter Pearsall in auction searches, while the limited institutional biography available in this source pack calls for care when expanding the historical narrative.

## Common works and media

The collected identity sources establish Pearsall as a furniture designer, so furniture and related decorative-art objects are the most defensible focus for this page. The source pack does not identify particular furniture models, manufacturers, materials, or production periods. Individual auction records should therefore be reviewed for the exact object type, construction, dimensions, labels, inscriptions, condition, restoration, provenance, and stated attribution before they are treated as representative Pearsall works or useful comparables.

## Market and appraisal context

An appraisal of an object attributed to Adrian Pearsall should begin with closely comparable objects rather than a general artist-level price range. Relevant considerations include the object's type, dimensions, date, condition, restoration, surface quality, labels or inscriptions, provenance, and strength of attribution. Comparable records should be checked for genuine similarity and for whether reported totals include buyer premiums or other fees. Appraisily's collected market data can provide an auction-history starting point, but broad category labels, incomplete feeds, private transactions, and later attribution changes can limit direct comparisons. Authentication and a current condition assessment may materially alter how a record applies to the object being appraised.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with matched auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Private sales, incomplete feeds, category mismatches, and attribution revisions may not be captured.
