  The  10 Ten  booth at the 2013 Los Angeles Modernism show . Scott always dials it in with a great display. Having some really good pieces to show off doesn't hurt either. Vintage Cynthia Sargent rug at  10 Ten .  The George Nelson sofa is a good one too. David Cressey pots with Malcolm Leland door and birdhouse, at the Reform booth Gimme that Doyle Lane.  At  Reform   Espenet dining set at  Reform Jerry Ackerman messing around with Gerard in front of three Ackerman pieces at the  Reform  booth .

The entrance of the show consisted of a display of work by four generations of the Eames family.     The piece hung behind the stacking chairs is from the 1961 Mathematica exhibit  by Charles  and Ray Eames  for IBM. Charles Eames photographs above a table and other works by Lucia Eames. Really giant house of cards.  Mabel Hutchinson sculpture at the Archive booth Calire Falkenstein and Haryy Bertoia Jewelry at the  Didier  booth.   They had some amazing jewelry by other sculptors as well, including pieces by Louise Nevelson and George Rickey.  I tried to take photos  but they came out even worse than this one.  George Rickey earrings from the Didier website. The Reform booth That Doyle Lane bowl is huge! Reform's wall of Espenet Cressey, JB Blunk stool and John Kapel desk at the Reform booth. Bad Instagram shot of an amazing JB Blunk sculpture ...
