The Design autumnal sale will illustrate the diversity and the wealth of the creations of the 20th century: from the Art Nouveau ̶ with an impressive dining room table by Louis Majorelle, to the 50’s with many major works of Jean Royère such as the set of living room furniture Ours Polaire.
“The global demand for unique and important pieces of design was illustrated time and again throughout today’s sale, which totaled over £4 million. The auction was led by Diego Giacometti’s ‘Pair of 'Têtes de Lionnes' armchairs’, which far exceeded the high estimate. Notable results were also achieved for the unprecedented offering of museum quality ceramics.
This October, Sotheby’s will present ‘Living in a Material World’, an auction dedicated to exploring how leading designers have employed materials in new and cutting-edge ways.
Covering the full spectrum of post-war and contemporary design, the exhibition will be curated by Tony Chambers, Brand and Content Director at Wallpaper*.
