On the Auction Block: 21st Century Modern Masters

By DIY Maven

Today, Christie’s auction house is setting aside its usual antique faire. On the block for your consideration is a collection of items from the creme de la creme of late 20th and early 21st century furniture designers. As you can imagine, these pieces are expensive. Like mortgage-the-house expensive. But, thanks to Christie’s on-line catalog, gawking is free. Here is just a peek at what you’ll find there:

'Komed' A pair of leather upholsered tubular steel chairs, designed circa 1996, by Marc Newson.

'Nekton' A set of four glass laminated polyurethan resin stools, 2006, by Zaha Hadid.

'Pandora's Box' An anodized aluminum wire and anodized copper chair, 1991by Forrest Myers.

Via.
