Vintage 1975 Signed DeMott Mixed-Metal Hot Air Balloon Sculpture
Vintage 1975 Signed DeMott Mixed-Metal Hot Air Balloon Sculpture
For anyone who prefers their decor a little airborne. This vintage DeMott hot air balloon sculpture combines sweeping brass and copper-toned metal with a beautifully banded onyx base.
Its abstract construction, raw metalwork and sculptural silhouette give it a distinctly Brutalist MCM feel, while the curled stand keeps the whole thing delightfully offbeat. Signed on the base and finished with the kind of warm patina only time can manage.
