Description: Large Brass Plated Bird 3) Flock of Seagull’s Wall Sculpture Signed C. Jere 1985 *TREE NOT INCLUDED LISTED SEPERATELY. It is decades years old and does show signs of use and wear, although minimal in my opinion for age. Signed and dated C. Jere 1985? the last digit of the date is unclear. C. Jere (a.k.a.) Curtis Jere is not a single artist but is a group of artists working for Artisan House and well known for their jewelry, metal sculptures, and collectibles. Artisan House artists included founders Curtis Freiler and Jerry Fels and Curtis Jere is a combination of their names. Before founding Artisan House these two friends and brothers-in-law had built a costume jewelry business which sold under the names of Renoir and Matisse, two well-known names of mid-20th century costume jewelry. During the mid-20th century, the C. Jere sculptures, and metal work were distributed by Raymor, a well-known name in Mid Century collectibles, and sold at Gump’s in San Francisco and other upscale retail establishments. Jerry Fels died 11/5/07 and Curtis Freiler, his brother-in-law passed 7/22/13 at a ripe old age of 103. But their legacy lives on in these fabulous sculptures. Over the years Artisan House was sold and resold remaining in business today. Wall sculpture: Height – 21 inches Width – 43 inches Depth – 5.5 inches
