Pair American Art Deco Curved Glass Console Tables by Ben Mildwoff
By Modernage Furniture Company, Ben Mildwoff
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Fabulous vintage pair of curved glass and ebonized wood console tables, designed by Ben Mildwoff and manufactured by his industrial glass company.

Vladimir Kagan, Early Custom Sculptural Walnut Desk
By Kagan-Dreyfuss, Inc., Vladimir Kagan
Located in Brooklyn, NY
A rare, likely one-of-a-kind, Vladimir Kagan design, employing all of the design touches that make him such an important figure in American Modernism.

The piece is finished on the back to allow floating in a room. This comes out of a Kagan-Dreyfuss designed Manhattan apartment...
