Minimalist Decorative Objects

MINIMALIST STYLE

A revival in the popularity of authentic Minimalist furniture is rooted in history while reflecting the needs and tastes of the 21st century. Designer Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s aphorism that “less is more” influenced the evolution of 20th-century interiors with an emphasis on function and order. This was a shift from the 19th century, with its lavish Victorian decorating, and was spread around the world through design styles including Bauhaus and brutalism.

Yet Minimalism was present in furniture design long before the clean lines of modernism, such as in the simple and elegant utility of Shaker furniture. Although the Minimalist art movement of the 1960s and ’70s had little crossover with furniture design, artist Donald Judd was inspired by the Shakers in creating his own spare daybeds and tables from sturdy wood. (Judd, whose advocacy of symmetry also informed his architectural projects, furnished his Manhattan loft with unassuming but poetic works by iconic modernist designers such as Gerrit Rietveld and Alvar Aalto.)

Understatement rather than ornamentation and open space instead of clutter are central themes for a Minimalist living room and bedroom. As opposed to Maximalism, the focus for Minimalist furniture and decor is on simplicity and considering the design and purpose of every object.

Furnishings are usually made in neutral or monochrome colors and pared down to their essentials — think nesting coffee tables, sectional sofas and accent pieces such as ottomans. And Minimalist ceramics can help achieve a decor that is both timeless and of the moment. The organic textures and personalization of handmade craftsmanship associated with these works have served as a sort of anti-Internet to screen-weary decorators. That said, while the thoughtful ergonomics of Scandinavian modern furniture, with its handcrafted teak frames, are at home in Minimalist spaces, so are the quietly striking pieces by Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa that employ industrial materials like stainless steel, aluminum and plastic.

Minimalist furniture is not for making flashy statements; it boasts subdued appeal and excels at harmonizing with any room. And, as it encompasses many different movements and eras of design, it also never goes out of style, owing to its tasteful refinement.

Crystel "Bone" Series Candlesticks Designed by Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co

By Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co.

Located in Doraville, GA

A pair of hand crafted "Bone" series crystel candlesticks designed by Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Company in the mid 1980's. Elsa Peretti (1940 - 2021) was an Italian fashion model, designer and muse of fashion designer Halston during the 1970's and 1980's. Peretti designed jewelry for Halston's collections, in 1974 Halston introduced Peretti to the CEO of Tiffany's, Walter Hoving, she was signed immediately. By 1978 Peretti was Tiffany's leading designer. At the height of Peretti's popularity in the 1980's, she left New York and moved to an abandoned village she had bought in the 1970's near Barcelona, Spain. Between 2009 and 2011, Peretti designs represented 10% of Tiffany's profits. In 2012, Peretti signed a 20 year contract with Tiffany for 49 million dollars. During Peretti's time in Spain in the 1980's, she branched out into homeware with pieces in china, crystel and silver. The crystel "Bone" series candlesticks were designed during this period. Peretti's pieces are owned by the Museum Of Modern Art in New York, the British Museum in London and the Museum Of Fine Arts in both Boston and Houston. The candlesticks measure approximately 11 3/8 inches tall, 2 7/8 inches wide and 2 3/8 inches deep. Both are acid etch signed on the bottom, the signature is very faint, such that it could not be captured in a photo. The candlesticks blue...
