Postmodern
Sophia Writing Desk by ALDO CIBIC (1955-) for MEMPHIS MILANO
Originally designed in 1985 by Aldo Cibic (1955-), this Sophia writing desk cuts a highly postmodern design exemplary of Memphis Milano design. Founded by Ettore Sottsass, the Memphis Group was active only from 1980 to 1987, making this stylish desk a rare find. This desk is crafted from lacquered wood and covered in decorative laminate for a natural wood essence. Signed on the underside of the desk, this fabulous piece includes a single drawer, with a lift top allowing for stationary storage.

Vintage CURTIS JERÉ Metal Wall Sculpture
Fabricated out of undulating ribbons of multi-tone metals, this sculpture hangs neatly on a wall and adds postmodern aesthetic to the art collection. Founded in 1963 by Curtis Freiler (1910-2013) and Jerry Fels (1917-2007) under the nom de plume “Curtis Jeré”, the goal of this metalworking company was to provide gallery quality art to a mass audience. Sold and resold over the years, the company still produces sculptures and recently began reintroducing popular mid-century modern designs from past catalogs. This sculpture is signed and dated “C. Jeré 1992” en verso on the sculpture by the artists.
