Message from Seller:

As a dedicated collector for over 15 years, I bring my passion to the selection of objects displayed in my gallery. it has always been my goal at coolhouse to find a unique eclectic mix of European, American and Asian design, art, lighting and furniture from 1880s to the present. I seek unique pieces and objects, which are outstanding in their craftsmanship and wish to give them a second life by introducing them to designers, architects, decorators and collectors.
