Auction introduction: Join us in December for our seasonal sale dedicated to historic and modern design, from 1880 until today. From the early designs of Josef Hoffmann and William Hunt Diedrich, to the culture defining Art Deco of Armand-Albert Rateau, Jean-Michel Frank and Gaston Suisse in Europe, the sale offers unique opportunities to collect rare and important designs. Mid-century French masters Jean Prouvé and Charlotte Perriand, along with ceramicist Georges Jouve and designer Jean Royère, are featured in the auction alongside late 20th-century craft by George Nakashima, Harry Bertoia, José Zanine Caldas and Frank Gehry. Modern masters Les Lalanne and contemporary luminaries Ingrid Donat and Hervé van der Straeten round out the full 150 years of design.
