Items Contributed by Daughter Deasa Turner Will Benefit the Montrose Center and Healthcare for the Homeless - Houston
April 19, 2024 (Houston, TX) — Shop with a purpose and own a piece of Houston history during “An Estate of Grace Sale”, featuring items from the estate of the late Houston real estate icon Martha Turner, namesake of Martha Turner Sotheby’s International Realty. Donated by her daughter, Deasa Turner, funds raised from the Sale will support the StellaNova Foundation, a local nonprofit whose mission is to provide funding for organizations which support responsible mental healthcare to those in need. This open-to-the-public event will be held on Friday and Saturday, May 10-11, 2024, staged by the Foundation at the Montrose Center, located at 401 Branard Street in Houston. The Foundation has selected Healthcare for the Homeless - Houston and the Montrose Center as its beneficiaries for this fundraising event.
“My mother was a generous soul, an active philanthropist and a woman of great style,” said Turner, an actress, model, artist and single mother of one who makes her home in Houston. “It’s most fitting that this will take place over Mother’s Day weekend.”
The collection will include clothing, jewelry, handbags, accessories, art and more. This includes recognizable pieces from Martha Turner’s signature looks: fashionable ensembles adorned with statement accessories. Designer labels will include Oscar de la Renta, Armani, St. John and Escada, among other heralded brands. The collection also features a wide variety of objects d’ art, all which will be offered at very accessible prices. Many items are still in new condition with original tags. “There will be furs and hats, along with books, art, crystal and table décor,” notes Deasa Turner. “Regal, but fun finds.”
