Vintage Californian Modern "Raindrop" Chrome Sculpture by Curtis Jere Materials: Polished & Burnished Chrome Metal Disks

A study in quiet elegance, this vintage ALVA Museum Replica sculpture faithfully reproduces Jane Poupelet's celebrated Sleeping Cat, capturing the graceful simplicity and timeless serenity of the original work. Resting peacefully atop a rectangular plinth, the cat's softly rounded silhouette and understated modeling embody the refined sculptural language that made Poupelet's animal studies so admired. Cast with a rich dark bronze-toned finish, the sculpture possesses a beautiful aged patina that enhances its warmth and character. The minimalist composition allows the gentle curves and tranquil posture of the sleeping feline to become the focal point, creating an object that is both calming and sculptural. Whether displayed atop a stack of art books, on a bookshelf, console, or desk, this piece offers a sophisticated accent that complements Mid-Century Modern, Scandinavian, Japandi, Contemporary, and traditional interiors alike. Produced by ALVA Studios, renowned for their exceptional museum-quality reproductions of important sculptures, this collectible piece reflects both artistic heritage and enduring craftsmanship. It is equally appealing to collectors of animalier sculpture, museum replicas, and thoughtfully curated decorative objects. A timeless decorative sculpture that celebrates the quiet beauty of everyday subjects, this sleeping cat brings an effortless sense of refinement, warmth, and sculptural presence to any interior.

Rare antique Art Deco Hubley cast iron modernist black cat door stop. Dimensions: 5.25" x 4.5" x 10" (W x D x H)

This exceptionally rare vintage wall clock by the celebrated Howard Miller Clock Company is a phenomenal example of high-end Postmodern design. The clock features a unique, minimalist frame composed of a heavy-gauge clear Lucite (acrylic) C-shaped band. This outer ring is intentionally separated at the top and bottom, creating a striking architectural gap that frames the piece. Suspended inside the clear casing by small pins is an elegant, translucent inner dial fashioned from premium peach/copper-tinted acrylic. Rather than sitting on a surface, the clock is engineered to hang directly from its central black quartz movement housing, allowing the open Lucite frame to float weightlessly against the wall. In a bold design twist, the dial is printed with oversized, crisp white Roman numerals that appear to float mid-air, paired with sleek white hour and minute hands and a vibrant red sweeping second hand. Driven by a precision battery-operated quartz movement, this sculptural timekeeper beautifully bridges the gap between Space Age materials and 1980s Postmodern aesthetics. Can't find another example out there. Manufacturer: Howard Miller Clock Company (Zeeland, Michigan, USA) Designer Attribution: While many collectors automatically look for George Nelson when they see vintage Howard Miller lucite...
