- Lot Description
Harry Bertoia (American, 1915û1978) for Knoll Associates Bird Chair and Ottoman, United States, c. 1965, polished metal, rubber, upholstery, both with maker's tags, chair ht. 38 1/2, wd. 38, dp. 35, ottoman ht. 14, wd. 24, dp. 17 in.
Note: Bertoia was an Italian-born American artist best known for his sculptures, jewelry, and furniture design. Born in San Lorenzo, Italy, Bertoia moved to Detroit at age 15 where he enrolled in Cass Technical High School. He would later attend the nearby Cranbrook Academy of Art, where he notably studied with Walter Gropius. He worked for the Evans Product Company and then the design firm Knoll. Perhaps best known for his furniture made entirely from polished steel wires which create a basket-like shape upon which cushions can rest.Condition
