The Design Department at Chiswick Auctions is proud to present the first sale of 2026, featuring four distinguished private collections spanning diverse periods and disciplines.
From the collection of researcher, author and specialist Mo Amelia Teitelbaum, is a curated selection of works by Jean-Michel Frank, designed during his time in Argentina where he co-founded the Design Firm Comte S.A. Chiswick Auctions is honoured to present works that reflects this Argentine chapter. Highlights include a scarce and important desk made for the Sans Souci Palace, a rattan and cherrywood table commissioned by Fritz Mandl, and a pair of Bridge Chairs designed for the foyer of the The Kavanagh Building - the iconic Modernist skyscraper in the heart of Buenos Aires.
A single owner collection of Italian Design, spanning the 1920s to present day, demonstrates the enduring relevance of Italian style. Works by masters such as Gio Ponti, Zanotta, Paolo Buffa, Piero Fornasetti and Ico Parisi are presented alongside renowned makers of lighting Barovier & Toso, Angelo Lelli and Venini.
