Rare unique wood sculpture table, superbly hand-crafted organic sweeping and curving form in wood with bronze support element and thick customized glass top by Philip LaVerne, American 1966 (signed twice - "LaVerne” engraved into the wood on top and “LaVerne Studio 66” on a brass placard on side near bottom). In 1966 Philip LaVerne experimented with wood sculptures for a short time so there are very few. This piece is constructed of rectangular wood blocks, each cut and molded to form a continuous curvaceous form which is supremely difficult. There is a bronze element as that was the medium he was best known for working with. The craftsmanship is off the charts.

Provenance:
From the Collection of Kelvin LaVerne

Round stalagmite coffee table in sculpted bronze by Paul Evans for Directional Furniture, American 1969 (signed "PE 69"). This piece was created from a mixture of epoxy resin and sand applied to a plywood base and sculpted into various swirls, drips and other patterns. Once hardened, the piece was sandblasted, sprayed with an atomized bronze finish, varnished, blown with a torch to provide a smoky look, polished, and then varnished again. The resulting work has a metallic sheen but is lightweight compared with something made of cast bronze.
