Owen-Thomas House and Museum 4 Star

Owen-Thomas House and Museum

The Owens-Thomas House has an outstanding collection of decorative arts, which complements the refined architectural setting. The nucleus of the collection belonged to the Owens family, who lived in the house from 1830 to 1951. A few objects from the original owner Richard Richardson are also on display.

The furnishings of the house reflect American and British taste from 1750 to 1830. Most of these beautiful antiques are in the neoclassical style and were owned by Savannahians. Among the highlights of the collection is an important Federal dining table with an innovative folding mechanism and twelve matching chairs attributed to Henry Connelly of Philadelphia. A rare caned settee attributed to Duncan Phyfe, a suite of neoclassical furniture and two gilt looking glasses were all crafted in New York around 1810. The collections also include rare Savannah-made textiles and silver, Chinese export porcelains and fine nineteenth century paintings.
