Modern Design at Heritage Showcased in Two Back-to-Back Sales on May 15, Featuring the Collection of DC Comics Legend Jenette Kahn
Significant works from Fernando and Humberto Campana, the Memphis Group, George and Mira Nakashima, Line Vautrin and more take center stage
In the afternoon of May 15, Heritage presents its Design Signature® Auction, with a diverse group of objects from the earliest years of Art Deco to the present era.
Notable highlights from the afternoon sale include a sculptural Chardon Mirror circa 1955. Designed by Line Vautrin in her signature Talosel resin, the mirror is more of an elegant sculpture than a mere looking-glass, with shards of amethyst-colored glass embedded into the frame. Also from the 1950s are two mosaics by the Los Angeles designer Evelyn Ackerman
, including a version of a mosaic in the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. These mosaics, distinctive examples of California mid-century design, are fresh to the market from the same longtime family collection.
This auction also features a fabulous collection of seven lots of furniture by the legendary designers George Nakashima and Mira Nakashima, including two stunning freeform examples: a Minguren I Dining Table in burl oak, and an exceptional Minguren I Coffee Table made from Oregon Myrtlewood burl and American black walnut. Rounding out the Nakashima group is a sleek mid-century single-arm settee from 1959.
The sale also has an impressive selection of 19 lots of Chihuly glass. With more than 300 works on offer, these back-to-back design events include an array of exceptional offerings. Images and information about all lots in Heritage's May 15 Where Magic Begins: The Collection of Jenette Kahn and Al Williams event can be found here
, and images and information about all lots in Heritage's May 15 Design Signature® Auction

How to use HA.com Website
Bidding Tutorial
|
New: Financing Now Available
Heritage now offers extended payment plan options up to 6 months to qualified, pre-approved clients on select items. See more details here.

Bid Protection
Bid Protection allows you to ensure you are not outbid by automatically increasing your bid to the next full increment if you are outbid during the live event. This protects you from being "sniped" by a single increment. Bid Protection can be entered on all items except the current lot and the next upcoming lot in a Live Auction.
Note: The extra increment won't be placed until the item is up for live bidding, so it is possible that you could be outbid by a bid placed prior to live bidding, such as another proxy bid, live proxy bid, mail bid, etc., which could result in your losing the lot by that one increment. For the same reason, it is also possible that a currently losing bid with bid protection placed could potentially win the lot once the lot is subject to live bidding and the Bid Protection increment(s) is placed. |
Buyer's premium
A Buyer's Premium is charged in addition to the successful bid. The applicable Buyer's Premium for bids placed with Heritage for this Auctions is 25% on the first $1,000,000 (minimum $49), 20% of any amount between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000, and 15% of any amount over $5,000,000 per lot.. |

Heritage Live! allows you to place late proxy bids and compete live against the auction floor from your PC or mobile device*. We recommend placing proxy bids before the live session in the unlikely event either side experiences technical problems during the auction.
Note: Proxy bidding ends ten minutes prior to the session start time. Live Proxy bidding on Heritage Live now starts within 2 hours of when the auction opens for proxy bidding and continues through the live session. |
