Isamu Noguchi for or Mr. and Mrs. Samuel C. Dretzin in 1948

Sublime and deeply sensual is this very rare private design commission by Isamu Noguchi for Mr. and Mrs. Samuel C. Dretzin in 1948. His sculptural mastery is revealed in all its glory in this work of interlocking fossil marble parts.

According to the video Christie’s NY has produced and which you are invited to watch in the following post, It is the most important piece of Noguchi furniture to ever come to public sale.
