furniture industrial design
Product photograph and blueprint for the Leopold Lamp and Desk Set
New York: Halsey McCormack & Heller 1929. Very good. Blueprint 24.5 x 31 inches. Design dated 1929 with 1930 company stamp on the reverse. Full scale schematic drawing for a combination desk lamp/writing set possibly designed for the Williamsburgh Savings Bank Tower in Brooklyn. With an original linen-backed photograph of the object 8.25 x 10.5 inches with binder punches in the gutter and writing on the back light soil and creasing. The blueprint has a 2-inch closed tear along one of the center creases otherwise Near Fine. Currently folded up the blueprint could easily be ironed out for display--or one could track down the original set and have a DIY Joseph Kosuth-style "One and Three Desk Sets" installation a suggestion made in jest but that would actually be pretty neat. <br /> <br />Halsey McCormack & Heller was an architecture firm founded in 1920 known for their landmark Art Deco and Beaux-Arts style bank buildings located around New York including the Williamsburgh Savings Bank Tower in Brooklyn 1927-1929 the Emigrant Savings Bank in the Bronx and the Dime Savings Bank in Brooklyn. <br /> <br/><br/> Halsey, McCormack & Heller unknown

Furniture and Interior Design: Hofstatter Theodore
SIGNIFICANT ARCHIVE OF FORTY-TWO ORIGINAL WATERCOLORS AND PENCIL DRAWINGS OF HOFSTATTER FURNITURE AND INTERIOR DESIGNS
New York 1940. Forty-two original works from approximately 9 x 7 1/4 inches to 14 1/2 x 11 1/2 inches. Most on paper and mounted to cardboard backing some executed on art board some matted. Minor dust-soiling to some several examples have pencil drawings of room layouts or floor plans on the verso Hofstatter stamps on verso of two a few examples detached from mount. Overall clean and in excellent condition retaining vibrant coloring. A stellar group of thirty-nine original watercolors and three original pencil drawings depicting early 20th-century furniture designs largely in the French Provincial style. The artwork was executed by New York furniture designer and interior decorator Theodore Hofstatter or artists working for his firm. The group includes wonderful depictions of mirrors beds window drapes chairs desks bureaus tables and stands. Additionally there are eleven works showing the interior design of various room settings. <br> <br> Theodore Hofstatter succeeded his father in their New York City business of furniture design and construction naming the firm Hofstatter's Sons when his brother Adolph joined him in the concern in the early 1870s. The Hofstatter family concentrated their efforts on building quality furniture at wholesale prices. In 1885 Theodore Hofstatter founded a branch of the business to focus on interior decorating opening a separate location on Broadway near Twelfth Street. Eventually the business would move to at least two different addresses on Fifth Avenue evidenced by Hofstatter labels affixed to the verso of several of the watercolors here a few of these labels are also marked "Special Design" by Hofstatter. According to THE NATIONAL CYCLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN BIOGRAPHY 1894 Theodore's design business "kept abreast ever since its opening with the current of fashionable taste in illustrating in the styles reproduced all those characteristics with which the names inseparably connected with the history of the three Louis are essentially a part. Berain Lebrun Watteau Andre Charles Boule have now a historical significance; Cailleri Gouthiere Reisener Fragonard Greuze Boucher Martin and the rest awaken a whole train of associations. It is through their influence and such as theirs that Theodore Hofstatter's designs possess the material to produce only those effects that can be truthfully termed good style." Hofstatter restricted his decorating contracts largely to commercial interests furnishing the City Club the Downtown Club the Arkwright Club and nine floors of the Hotel Savoy. He also cultivated a small group of private clients one of whom was Cornelius Dresselhuys Dutch consul to Great Britain. Two of Dresselhuys's rooms the Entrance Hall and Vestibule at 9 Kensington Palace Gardens in London are featured here in lovely full watercolors. <br> <br> A fascinating group of artwork featuring furniture and interiors from a prominent New York City furniture maker and interior designer. Such original illustrations of furniture and interior decoration are in our experience quite scarce. unknown books

Greenfield Ma 1825. 108pp. Publisher's advertisements on rear board. 16mo. Original printed paper-covered boards. Moderate staining to boards minor chipping to spine ends minor edge wear. Moderate scattered foxing. Very good and wholly unsophisticated. Untrimmed.

Including an appendix containing several valuable tables." Clear and concise instructions are given for dying and staining woods making glue making and applying varnish polishing japanning cleaning woods and metals and much more. For example to make furniture oil "Take linseed oil put it in a glazed pipkin with as much alkanet root as it will cover; let it boil gently and you will find it become of a strong red color: let it cool and it will be fit for use." Six tables in the appendix provide assistance for figuring lengths and weights and an index follows. <br> <br> Western Massachusetts was obviously a place of great architectural and design innovation during the American Federal period as both the present title and Asher Benjamin's landmark architecture book THE COUNTRY BUILDER'S ASSISTANT. were printed in Greenfield.

Félix & Amélie Marcilhac
JEAN DUNAND / Sculpteur, dinandier, orfèvre, laqueur, relieur et architecte d'intérieur, Jean Dunand
HB, 305 x 250 mm, 400 pages, 2000 illustrations, Texte en Francais. ISBN 9782376660361. Sculpteur, dinandier, orfèvre, laqueur, relieur et architecte d'intérieur, Jean Dunand (1877-1942) est l'une des figures les plus importantes du mouvement Art déco. Formé à la sculpture, il s'oriente, peu après son arrivée à Paris en 1898, vers la dinanderie puis la laque, avec laquelle il composera sur des paravents, panneaux et meubles. À la tête d'un important atelier, il participe aux grandes expositions, dont l'Exposition des Arts décoratifs de 1925 et l'Exposition coloniale de 1931, l'Exposition Internationale des arts et techniques de 1937 ou l'Exposition internationale de New York de 1939. Régulièrement exposé à la galerie Georges Petit, il est l'un des portraitistes les plus recherchés de son temps et immortalise des figures de la mode et des arts telles que Jeanne Lanvin, Louise Boulanger, Jenny Sacerdote, Madeline Vionnet, Joséphine Baker, ainsi que des personnalités du monde de la finance tels que les Lazard, Carnegie ou Louis-Dreyfus. Ses multiples talents lui permettent également d'intervenir sur de nombreux décors en France et aux États-Unis tels que le salon de musique de Solomon R. Guggenheim (1925), les appartements de Madame Agnès (1926) ou Templeton Crooker (1928), et enfin sur les grands paquebots tels que l'Atlantique et le Normandie. Cette nouvelle édition enrichie présente présente près de 2 000 documents essentiellement en couleur. Précédé d'une biographie illustrée, un répertoire permet de recenser près de 1800 oeuvres dont plus de 600 inédites dans la première édition (1991).

Félix Marcilhac / de Jean-Louis Gaillemin / Jean Grisoni
Félix Marcilhac. Passion Art déco
Relié pleine toile et coffret illustrés 204 pages plus illustrations. ISBN 9782847422245. Passion Art déco ouvre pour nous la maison très secrète du collectionneur Félix Marcilhac. Spécialiste des arts décoratifs de la première moitié du xxe siècle, cet antiquaire et historien d'art est un des premiers à avoir remis à l'honneur l'Art nouveau et l'Art déco en France au milieu des années soixante. À Saint-Germain-des-Prés où il ouvre sa galerie en 1970, il présente les meubles Majorelle, Groult, Iribe, Rateau, Ruhlmann, Chareau et Jean-Michel Frank, les verres de Lalique, les laques de Dunand. Sans oublier les sculptures cubistes de Joseph Csaky ou les peintures orientalistes d'André Maire et Jacques Majorelle. Parmi ses clients, Catherine Deneuve, Alain Delon, Hélène Rochas, Karl Lagerfeld, Yves Saint Laurent et Pierre Bergé, Andy Warhol mais aussi de nombreux musées et institutions internationales. Choisi pour son caractère Art déco, l'hôtel particulier situé dans le quartier des années trente de Boulogne était pour Félix Marcilhac le cadre idéal pour réunir les chefs-d'ouvre qu'il voulait garder auprès de lui. Aux antipodes du musée et dans une ambiance qui évoque les intérieurs mythiques tels celui du couturier Jacques Doucet, les différentes pièces de cette maison familiale laissent dialoguer les formes et les couleurs et redonnent une nouvelle vie aux ouvres d'art. Félix Marcilhac a confié à Jean-Louis Gaillemin, historien de l'art et journaliste, les secrets de ces objets qui ont su nourrir sa passion de collectionneur. Les photographies de Jean Grisoni renouent avec l'atmosphère des films de Marcel L'Herbier ou des reportages mythiques de L'Illustration. Ouvrage publié en partenariat avec Sotheby's.

GAILLEMIN, Jean - Louis
Andre Dubreuil, Poete du fer Poet of iron
Relie, cartonnage noire, jaquette illustree, 235 x 310mm., 286pp., illustration tres profonde en couleurs. ISBN 2915542007. Edition bilingue Fr/ Angl. Elancee et seduisante, la chaise Spine, qui orne la couverture de ce livre, est un des objets les plus connus de la creation contemporaine. On la trouve dans les musees et dans toutes les encyclopedies du design. Son auteur, Andre Dubreuil, apres une carriere d'antiquaire et de peintre decorateur, a ete l'un des animateurs de la nouvelle creation anglaise au milieu des annees 80 avec Mark Brazier-Jones et Tom Dixon. Apres avoir manie le fer a beton en prestidigitateur, Dubreuil s'est confronte aux formes de la tradition pour leur donner une nouvelle vie. Un retour a la citation, a l'ornement, au ?« metier ?» qui s'est effectue sans etat d'ame : pour lui c'est l'invention qui compte avant tout. L'histoire des styles ne l'a jamais rattrape, car il ignore vers quoi, demain, son metier le menera, un metier qui a fait surgir au hasard des experimentations pres de 400 meubles-objets enigmatiques de 1985 a aujourd'hui, chaises, commodes, miroirs, cabinets, pendules, lanternes..., dans lesquels le reve, l'invention et le mystere l'emportent sur la fonction. Nouveau livre.
