Phillips de Pury Design and Design Masters

Happy Monday to you! I hope your weekend was happy and restful.
Tomorrow and Wednesday, Phillips de Pury will hold its Design and Design Masters auctions, highlighting great work from the 20th century. They are offering some exquisite pieces. I was in an organic mood looking through the catalogs, so here are a few of my more natural favorites... They are: a Jean Dunand vase ca. 1925 (love!), a Jean Royere dining table ca. 1953 (see lovely details here), a Diego Giacometti ceiling fixture ca. 1978, a George Nakashima Conoid bench 1961, Serge Mouille pendants ca. 1955, Jean Royere Chenets from the 1940s, and a Jean Royere Ribbon form bed ca. 1945. There are a number of major 20th century design auctions this month. It's been fun browsing the catalogs. I will have more to show this week. And don't forget the Elizabeth Taylor auctions this week too -- entertaining whether you like auctions or not!
