DESIGNER
Philip and Kelvin LaVerne

Father and son, since the 1960s, have been creating works of art and furniture in their New York atelier in which the sculptural use of bronze is central. Although their decorative subjects often draw on the mythological past of distant civilisations such as the Greeks, Chinese and Egyptians, their creations are extremely innovative in terms of technical experimentation. Extremely rare on the market, their furniture testifies to unique research in the field of chemical reactions aimed at imparting particular patinas and colours to metals.
