Silvered Bronze French Christian Maas Birkin Bag Sculpture & Art Limited Edition
By Christian Maas
Located in North Miami, FL
This amazing sculpture by the well known French artist and sculptor, Christian Maas is a silvered bronze life-size rendering of the infamous Hermes Kelly Birkin bag. It was a limited edition of 100. It was done in 1990. It is titled the "Sac Kelly". The weight is extremely heavy and weighs excess of approximately 50 lbs.

Evan Jensen Bronze Dish, Denmark, 1930s
Located in Valby, 84
Bronze Art deco dish/charger by Danish artist Evan Jensen from the 1930's in a beautiful original condition, the dish is signed Evan Jensen Copenhagen Bronze and has model number 320. The dish has a very decorative image of a deer on the front. The dish is the perfect dish to have standing as a piece of art but can also be used as a bowl to store stuff like fruit or nuts or whatever else you could think of. Art Deco, short for the French Arts Décoratifs, and sometimes just called Deco, is a style of visual arts, architecture, and product design, that first appeared in France in the 1910s (just before World War I), and flourished in the United States and Europe during the 1920s and 1930s. Through styling and design of the exterior and interior of anything from large structures to small objects, including how people look (clothing, fashion and jewelry), Art Deco has influenced bridges, buildings (from skyscrapers to cinemas), ships, ocean liners, trains, cars, trucks, buses, furniture, and everyday objects like radios and vacuum cleaners. It got its name after the 1925 Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes (International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts) held in Paris. Art Deco combined modern styles with fine craftsmanship and rich materials. During its heyday, it represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress. From its outset, Art Deco was influenced by the bold geometric forms of Cubism and the Vienna Secession; the bright colours of Fauvism and of the Ballets Russes; the updated craftsmanship of the furniture of the eras of Louis XVI and Louis Philippe I; and the exoticized styles of China, Japan, India, Persia, ancient Egypt and Maya art. It featured rare and expensive materials, such as ebony and ivory, and exquisite craftsmanship. The Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and other skyscrapers of New York City built during the 1920s and 1930s are monuments to the style. In the 1930s, during the Great Depression, Art Deco became more subdued. New materials arrived, including chrome plating, stainless steel and plastic. A sleeker form of the style, called Streamline Moderne, appeared in the 1930s, featuring curving forms and smooth, polished surfaces. Art Deco is one of the first truly international styles, but its dominance ended with the beginning of World War II and the rise of the strictly functional and unadorned styles of modern architecture and the International Style of architecture that followed. This dish is the perfect detail for any interior from the modern Wabi Sabi style...

1920s Art Deco Sculpture in Bronze Signed 'Matto' 'Marcel Bouraine', Two Woman
Located in Oakland, CA
1920s Art Deco Sculpture in Bronze Signed ‘Matto’ (Marcel Bouraine), Two dancing young women with tambourines and light. The Bronze sculpture is on stepped Portoro Marble base and was created in France and signed “Matto” which was the pseudonym for Marcel Bouraine. Marcel Bouraine was a renowned French sculptor known for his Art Deco works during the 1920s and 1930s. This sculpture is made of bronze and is silver-gilt, which means it has a layer of gold or gold-colored material applied to the surface. The base is a most valuable type of marble- “Portoro” marble -which includes gold veining and which adds to its elegance and overall aesthetic. The depiction of two dancing young ladies with tambourines suggests a lively and dynamic composition, capturing the spirit of the Art Deco era. The addition of the French-style cameo glass light...
