Favorite Picks: Phillips de Pury, London: Design

. Thursday, September 20, 2012


The 2012 Fall auction season kicks off with a wealth of 20th century design and artwork being offered by all the major houses.

My next feature is Phillips de Pury's Design auction which takes place in London on September 27th. This is the first half of a double-header day for Phillips, with their Nordic Design auction being held immediately after.  These are my favorite picks:

A pair of JEAN PROUVE.demountable Cafétéria chairs from Air France Building in the Congo.

A freeform coffe table by CHARLOTTE PERRIAND and JEAN PROUVE.
