Modern Decorative Dishes and Vide-Poche

MODERN STYLE

The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw sweeping social change and major scientific advances — both of which contributed to a new aesthetic: modernism. Rejecting the rigidity of Victorian artistic conventions, modernists sought a new means of expression. References to the natural world and ornate classical embellishments gave way to the sleek simplicity of the Machine Age. Architect Philip Johnson characterized the hallmarks of modernism as “machine-like simplicity, smoothness or surface [and] avoidance of ornament.”

Early practitioners of modernist design include the De Stijl (“The Style”) group, founded in the Netherlands in 1917, and the Bauhaus School, founded two years later in Germany.

Followers of both groups produced sleek, spare designs — many of which became icons of daily life in the 20th century. The modernists rejected both natural and historical references and relied primarily on industrial materials such as metal, glass, plywood, and, later, plastics. While Bauhaus principals Marcel Breuer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe created furniture from mass-produced, chrome-plated steel, American visionaries like Charles and Ray Eames worked in materials as novel as molded plywood and fiberglass. Today, Breuer’s Wassily chair, Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chaircrafted with his romantic partner, designer Lilly Reich — and the Eames lounge chair are emblems of progressive design and vintage originals are prized cornerstones of collections.

It’s difficult to overstate the influence that modernism continues to wield over designers and architects — and equally difficult to overstate how revolutionary it was when it first appeared a century ago. But because modernist furniture designs are so simple, they can blend in seamlessly with just about any type of décor. Don’t overlook them.

Ceramic Rhinos Plate, Hand made in South Africa
Located in North Miami, FL
Introducing the Rhino Plate, a remarkable ceramic creation crafted with precision by the talented Nompilo Zaba and hand-sculpted by Victor Shabalala at Zimele Ceramics in South Africa. Measuring 1 inch high, 10 inches in length, and 10 inches in width, this hand-painted plate is a true masterpiece that celebrates the majesty of African wildlife. The plate features a stunning portrayal of the rhinoceros, an iconic symbol of strength and endurance in African culture. Rhinos, with their formidable presence and ancient lineage, are often seen as symbols of protection and resilience. They are deeply revered in African traditions for their role in the ecosystem and their status as majestic, yet endangered creatures. Nompilo Zaba’s intricate hand-painting vividly captures the rhino's powerful form and unique features, including its distinctive horns and rugged skin. The design showcases the rhino in a naturalistic setting, highlighted against a backdrop of earthy, vibrant colors that evoke the rich textures of the African savannah. The artistic composition reflects the deep connection between African wildlife and the environment, blending traditional patterns and motifs with a contemporary touch. Victor Shabalala’s sculpting expertise ensures that the plate is not only a canvas for this beautiful artwork but also a testament to the high quality of South African pottery...
