An extraordinary, oversized piece of modern metal design. Cast from heavy aluminum, this substantial oval centerpiece vessel features a dramatic, deeply scalloped "crown splash" rim with sweeping, finger-like fluted waves rising from a smooth central basin.
The heavy cast metal displays a refined industrial silver patina with subtle pitted grain and soft oxidation across its textured interior. Its impressive 50 cm length and 14 cm height give it a bold, architectural footprint on any surface.
Whether filled with large botanical displays and fruit or styled as a standalone sculpture on a dining table, kitchen island, or entry console, this piece makes a commanding statement.
Design Style: Sculptural Modernist / Industrial Fine Art / Coastal Organic
Dimensions: 50 cm L x 32.5 cm W x 14 cm H
Color / Finish: Aged Industrial Silver / Textured Brushed Aluminum
Materials: Heavy Cast Aluminum
Condition
Good vintage condition with authentic industrial character. The cast metal remains bright and structurally sound throughout. As an authentic vintage aluminum object, the interior basin and fluted rim display age-appropriate mottling, light surface oxidation, faint scuffs, and natural casting texture variances inherent to molten metalwork. Completely solid and heavy.
An extraordinary, highly expressive original fine art etching depicting a dynamic rearing horse. Executed in a gestural, sketch-like drypoint technique, the print captures movement, power, and anatomy with masterful line work and rich tonal plate tone shading.
Printed on heavy, textured cream art paper, this piece is part of an exceptionally small edition, hand-numbered 7/10 in pencil on the lower left margin and hand-signed by artist Miguel Ramos on the lower right.
The artwork is elegantly housed in its vintage solid wood frame with a warm ochre mat board that highlights the classic equestrian motif.
A standout piece for collectors of original printmaking, equestrian art enthusiasts, or upscale gallery wall displays.

Condition
Good vintage condition. The etching itself is in beautiful, clean shape, with deep black ink impressions, crisp paper texture, and no foxing or water damage. The vintage wood frame retains a rich mahogany tone; as an authentic aged frame, it displays minor character wear, including faint surface scuffs and a small chip along one corner edge. Structurally sound, wired, and ready to hang.
A captivating pair of mid-century hand-forged wrought iron candlestick holders. Crafted with raw, blacksmith-made character, each holder features a slender vertical stem that curls into a continuous, organic spiral tail base for stability.
The tops feature shallow cupped drip trays with traditional central prickets (spikes) designed to anchor pillar, pillar-taper, or beeswax candles securely. Their dark, oxidized iron patina and primitive geometric lines blend Brutalist edge with organic minimalism.
An ideal statement pair for moody dining, a rustic mantle, or a minimalist console display.

Dimensions: Approx. 17 cm Height
Material: Solid Hand-Forged Wrought Iron

Condition
Good vintage condition with rich historical character. The hand-forged iron retains a dark, matte oxidized patina throughout. As authentic blacksmith pieces, they show subtle variations in texture, faint surface oxidation/rust spots, and minor wax remnants in the drip cups consistent with age and use. Completely sturdy, heavy, and structurally sound.
An exceptional piece of 1980s Postmodern lighting design. This sculptural table lamp features a clean, architectural base turned from solid blonde beechwood, comprising a thick cylindrical column mounted to a crisp square plinth base.
The lamp is crowned by its original, highly distinctive pagoda-style hexagonal shade. Constructed from off-white fabric stretched over a wooden umbrella-like armature, it terminates in a wooden finial top that mirrors the geometric lines of the base. When illuminated, the shade emits a warm, diffused, atmospheric glow.
With its striking blend of Memphis-era geometry and warm Scandinavian natural materials, this piece serves as a major statement lamp for an upscale bedside setup, a curated desk, or a Postmodern living room credenza.
Design Era: 1980s Postmodern / Memphis Milano Style
Dimensions: 38 cm H x 33.5 cm Shade Diameter
Materials: Solid Beechwood, Stretched Fabric Shade
Voltage: Standard European Wiring (E27/E14 fitting)

Good, authentic vintage condition with age-appropriate character. The solid beechwood column and square base are in fine shape, showing light handling wear and smooth grain. The original off-white fabric shade is structurally intact and tightly stretched over its frame; as a vintage textile, it displays some light, faint surface age stains and minor discoloration spots consistent with its era. Fully functional and wired for use.
