Mid-Century Modern Polished Nickel Urn Form Torchère by Tommi Parzinger
-
Description
This elegant Mid-Century Modern torchère was realized by the fabled 20th century design luminary Tommi Parzinger in the United States, circa 1950. It features a reeded body that attaches to an hourglass form neck with undulating open form rectangular embellishments flanking each side of the conical shade, all realized in lustrous polished nickel. The piece sits on a tiered and fluted circular base- a form that recurs in the embellishments near the top and bottom of the body- and sits on curvilinear stylized cabriolet style legs. With its modern interpretation of a neoclassical design sensibility, and clean, forward looking lines, this piece is as versatile as it is aesthetically appealing. It would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Art Deco (or even traditional) to contemporary. It is in excellent condition.
American, circa 1950.
