A wonderful bronze abstract in the form of a female nude mounted on a terrazzo base. It is by the noted Mexican artist Jonas Gutierrez Castillo. It is signed Jonas 99 PA near the base. PA stands for Pruebas de Artista or Artist's Proof. The bronze has a beautiful warm brown gold patina. The base is a heavy terrazzo with lots of inclusions. The base has some losses to the edges which are pictured in detail. The bronze has some patina inclusions or spots, pictured as well. One of the artist's more notable works is a massive bronze title the The Stone Eater on Puerto Vallarta's Malecon. We've attached a biography of the artist courtesy of Galleria Dante of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico below: Born in Guadalajara, Jalisco in 1966. The artist began to sculpt at an early age. In 1980, he helped create the monumental public sculpture "La Estampida", which is located at a busy intersection in his hometown, near the emblematic building of the Hotel Riu. Jonás Gutiérrez is known in Puerto Vallarta for his monumental 2.4-meter-high bronze and obsidian sculpture...

A wonderful Italian Gilt Aluminum and Marble dining table suitable in a Kitchen or small dining room. Very much reminiscent of the Italian masters like Gio Ponti or Ico Parisi. Flowing delicate legs and a simple but elegant apron. The round marble is fitted into a square base. Clever design. The piece is mid century and it's likely from anywhere from the late 1940's to early 1960's. The base is marked Italy on top of one of the legs under the marble, pictured. There is quite a bit of paint loss to the gilt finish. We've left it alone instead of having it repainted as it shows the table's age and character. The marble top is beautifully veined and has nice patina as well. There are numerous chips to the bottom of the edge and a few minor ones to the top edge. We've pictured a few of them. It is structurally sound. It's approximately 43.25 inches in diameter and 29 inches tall. It's pictured next to a Herman Miller rosewood and white Eames lounge chair...
