Philip & Kelvin LaVerne "Chan" Bronze Coffee Table

Rare Modernist Philip & Kelvin LaVerne (American, 1907-1987, b. 1937) "Chan" Bronze Coffee Table. Signed by artist. Rectangular frame inset with cascading top etched with the Chinese theme of the "Spring Festival". Circa 1960's. Measures approx. - 18" high x 42" wide x 20" deep. Philip (1907-1987) and Kelvin (b. 1937) LaVerne operated as artist-furniture makers creating one of a kind and limited edition pieces that would be both functional and for display. Father and son made patinated and sculpted bronze tables and cabinets combining innovative techniques such as casting bronze in low-relief sheets with traditional styles in a way that has rarely been matched since for its idiosyncratic artistry.
