Michael Jackson’s Custom Furniture to be Auctioned

   

*The 22 pieces of furniture that Michael Jackson had custom made for his London home will be auctioned off for charity.

Darren Julien of Julien’s Auctions says the items were intended for use during his “This Is It” comeback tour in the UK.

Among the pieces in the collection: a gilded red velvet sofa that seats nine, a leopard-print chair trimmed with ostrich feathers and a pair of velvet armchairs embroidered with gold eagles are among the offerings.

Fans can visit a re-creation of the home at Las Vegas’ Planet Hollywood casino from June 14 to June 25 before the items are sold at auction.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit two charities: MusiCares, which provides health care and other services for struggling musicians, and Joshua’s Heart, which aims to end world hunger.
