A powerful and expressive limited-edition bronze sculpture titled “By the Sea” by renowned Mexican sculptor Victor Salmones, celebrated for his dynamic figurative works that merge modernist abstraction with classical human form. This striking sculpture portrays a reclining female figure captured in a dramatic suspended pose, balancing gracefully on extended arms and legs. The composition creates a captivating sense of movement and tension, emphasizing both strength and elegance in the human form. Salmones’ distinctive sculptural language is evident throughout the piece. The figure is modeled with expressive textural surfaces and fluid anatomical lines, giving the work a raw, tactile quality that contrasts beautifully with the polished presentation of its base. The sculpture rests on a clear Lucite plinth, elevating the figure visually while creating the illusion that the form is floating within space—an effect that makes the piece particularly compelling when displayed on a console, pedestal, or coffee table in contemporary interiors. The underside of the sculpture is signed and numbered by the artist and marked: Victor Salmones 5/10 confirming that the piece is number 5 from a limited edition of only ten casts. It is accompanied by the original certificate of authenticity issued by the artist. Works by Victor Salmones are highly sought after by collectors of Mexican modern sculpture...

Art Deco Perfection: 1939 Enamel Travel Suitcase Makeup Compact Case, MUST SEE! An extraordinary embodiment of Jazz Age glamour, bon vivant luxury, and Art Deco wanderlust, this rare 1939 enamel travel suitcase makeup compact represents the pinnacle of 1930s design imagination. Objects of this caliber, playful yet exquisitely executed, are the very heart of serious Art Deco collecting, and it truly does not get better than this. Expertly hand-painted enamel, the compact is modeled as a miniature leather travel suitcase, complete with gold-tone corner protectors, buckled straps, and a sculptural handle that doubles as the opening mechanism. Tipping the handle gently releases the case, revealing a mirror-lined interior and a fully intact, original cosmetic arrangement: a compartment of nude-toned face powder (still present and loose), a smaller compartment of vivid rose blush with its original factory paper liner, and a petite puff, appearing barely used, if at all. The exterior is nothing short of breathtaking. The “leather” surface is entirely hand-painted, featuring linear horizontal brushstrokes on either side and a bold central squiggle motif, evoking the texture of fine luggage from the era. Encircling the case are brilliantly graphic Art Deco travel decals: Paris, London, New York, Roma, Monte Carlo, the Queen Mary, Havanna Club, and, most notably, the legendary French Art Deco ocean liner Normandie, each rendered in vivid color and crisp geometry. These travel motifs “dance” around a central engraved cartouche reading “Topaz Club ’39”, a tantalizing and deeply evocative personalization. During the 1930s, international travel became the ultimate symbol of sophistication and freedom, fueled by luxury steamships, glamorous hotels, elite clubs, and the rise of the cosmopolitan traveler. Suitcases plastered with travel labels became icons of worldliness, instantly signaling status, adventure, and taste. Art Deco embraced this imagery wholeheartedly, using bold typography, streamlined vessels, and exotic destinations to express modern life at its most glamorous. Novelty luxury pieces like this compact translated that ideal into intimate objects, portable symbols of privilege and pleasure. Comparable in spirit to the finest Cartier vanity cases...
