MCM Kinetic Astrolite Lucite Fishes Sculpture by Ritts
By Herb Ritts, 1952-2002
Located in Warrenton, OR
MCM Kinetic Astrolite Lucite Fishes Sculpture by Ritts UPDATE: Due to agreement with 1stDibs, we'll be staying through the end of the year. This fantasic kinetic two fish sculpture, which measures about 9.5 x 6.5 x 2.5 inches overall, is great for the MCM affcionado as well as the wildlife lover. Rotate the top fish to give the sculpture the angles your most enjoy, and change it again whenever you like. The fish can be separated as well, as the rod connecting them is not attached but easily is removable. Good vintage condition. No chips or cracks. Light scratches, and some blemishes/spots that could probably be alleviated by proper lucite cleaning/polishing techniques. IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOLLOWS; PLEASE READ THE BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY. ABOUT OUR LISTINGS: -Measurements are approximate and generally represent the approximate widest/longest/highest areas of each item. -Colors on your monitor and/or in your environment may look somewhat different than in ours and often look deeper on dark backgrounds than they do on light backgrounds. -Please keep in mind that vintage items usually will show evidence of previous ownership, such as scuffing, scratching, and/or other wear such as dulling or marring on base, etc..
