Founded in 1924, Alex Cooper Auctioneers has grown to become one of the region's leading auction houses for fine and decorative art, oriental rugs and real estate. Its state-of-the-art 35,000-square-foot showroom provides a spirited and professional atmosphere for both qualified buyers and motivated sellers. When auctions are not running live, the property serves as one of the largest showrooms for Oriental rugs on the East Coast, and these are always available for purchase - in other words, the rugs themselves are not generally sold at auction, but in the traditional manner. Still owned and operated by the Cooper family, generations of local residents have come to depend on Alex Cooper Auctioneers for its high level of customer service and satisfaction.
