Lot 145: Two Contemporary Decorative Metal Wall Sculptures

Live auction will start in __ days and __ hours

Start price: £2

Buyer's Premium:

A lot comprising two contemporary decorative metal wall hangings. The first is a large rectangular panel constructed from black-finished metal wire and a rectangular-section frame. The openwork design depicts a stylised climbing vine with five flower heads, each featuring open wire petals and a central translucent blue-green glass cabochon boss. The design is further detailed with wire-outlined leaves throughout. The second piece is an asymmetrical abstract wall sculpture featuring various geometric shapes, including open circles, squares, triangles, and a large hammered crescent arc. Several elements show a textured, stippled finish. These shapes are interconnected by a series of arching metal rods and wire spirals in patinated bronze and copper tones. An orange adhesive label with the handwritten digits 145 is affixed to the right side of the floral panel frame and to a square element of the abstract sculpture. A small white rectangular label with the digits 33 is located on the lower frame edge of the floral panel and at the bottom of the abstract sculpture. No maker names, signatures, or manufacturer marks are readable on either piece.


Condition report:

Both items appear in good decorative condition. The floral panel shows minor surface dust and very slight superficial wear to the black finish consistent with use (photo 2). The abstract sculpture exhibits minimal surface wear to the patinated finish (photo 3). Both pieces retain adhesive auction inventory labels as described.
