Esoteric Survey

A mix of Downtown Modernism and other pick ups from the weekend. This is the second straight Downtown Modernism that I bought a Lawenda Lamp.  There is also Design Line, James Lovera and Laura Andreson. A 1950s sign for Redondo Beach architect, Corwin Eberting AIA  Post-Modern Time Last but certainly not least, a Magdalena Suarez Frimkess dog.

Noguchi Akari lamp, wall sculpture, and... Smalls  John Caruthers is one of those hard to find California ceramicists I'm always looking for. It's so hard to find so I'm always super happy to get another piece. I'm also happy when I get to bring home San Diego pieces. A nesting table set by Japanese company Yamaguchi All three have this label, which would make it seem like they're Scandinavian. I have the feeling that this label is covering up a Japan stamp. Scandinavian Authentic Furniture missed this one. Nice try. Some catalog photos from Yamaguchi.
