Curtis Jeré
Though the name Curtis Jeré is familiar to many as the maker of ebullient and eccentric modern design from the 1960s and ‘70s, relatively few are aware that it is a pseudonym for the design team of Curtis Freiler and Jerry Fels. Together, the two created some of the most striking and vivid furnishings and decorative objects of their era, from sculptures and dynamically framed mirrors, to lighting and wall decorations.
New Yorkers Freiler and Fels had collaborated for two decades on small jewelry lines before launching a design company called Artisan House in 1964. They combined variants of their names to create an artful persona — sometimes shortened to C. Jeré; the "surname" is pronounced with a rising inflection: jhayr-EH — that stood behind large-scale decorative metalwork, marked by semi-abstract petal forms with burnt and brazed edges. Fels served as head of design, and Freiler, known for his keen handiwork, was the production chief. The pair’s eclectic metalwork has captivated decorative art collectors and interior designers ever since.
The work of Curtis Jeré displays a sense of playfulness and curiosity, while drawing on inspirations and themes that include flowers, discs, geometric forms and animal figures. Freiler and Fels had a masterful ability to work with different materials, such as patinated brass and brilliant chrome.
The price of a Curtis Jeré mirror, lamp, wall-mounted sculpture or tabletop sculpture can range from $400 to $12,000, depending on the size, the rarity of the piece, the intricacy of the metalwork and the materials used in its construction. Other factors like condition can affect the perceived value and, thus, the cost of works by Curtis Jeré.
As you will see on 1stDibs, the imaginative powers of the designers of Curtis Jeré pieces were boundless, and their creations will add a dash of verve in any room.

- Italian Design Midcentury Modern White Carrara Marble Pedestal Stand / End TableLocated in Lisse, NLBeautiful and practical, handcrafted table. This rare and beautifully shaped flower stand is entirely hand-crafted out of a beautiful white marble. This timeless table is in good to excellent condition and we date it from the 1960's. This fine specimen stands as strong and stabile as the day it was made and its heavy weight and relatively wide base also ads to that stability. Thanks to its white color and natural and calm decoration of black veins a piece like this can be used in all types of interiors and in a wide variety of color schemes. It never seizes to amaze us how people manage to create such beautiful shapes out of materials that are naturally very 'unwilling to cooperate'. If you already have a place in mind for this fine specimen then maybe you should be its next custodian. Weather you use this piece as a plant stand, a small wine table...Category
