HARRY: I'm heading over to West Hollywood soon to check out Jonathan Adler's store. He's got a cool new candelabra and some rather lovely inky black vases. He's also just paired up with the C. Jere studio to reproduce their spiky brass sea urchin sculptures (above). They literally pop off the wall. I'd never heard of C. Jere and can't find much on him (her?)...does anyone know about this clearly talented sculptor? Artisan House has a lot of C. Jere's work...and it's quite a bit cheaper than the urchin at Adler's! I love the piece below. It's called Flight. There's a lot to look at on the site. Just the C. Jere collection has 25 pages. You can also find some C. Jere pieces on the very cool Wrightnow site - an online gallery.

This looks like one of my mother's pieces from Artisan House. She worked there as a top designer for 30 years (still contributes a number of designs). Nearly all of her pieces are abstract/non-objective (comprising 90% or more of those lines at the Artisan House, more fine-art pieces. This looks very similar to one we had in our house when I was younger, which makes me think it is one of hers. Of course, almost everything there is stamped with C.Jere, to represent all of the artists that work there. The name comes from her mentor, Jerry Fels, and cofounder of the company.
