Crandell...
The price range heavily depends on the style of the bridge, dimensions, condition, and age together.

Have become fascinated by C Jere' Trio of Birds in Flight Eagles. Described as a floor sculpture yet was also told that it moves in the wind. Does that mean it can be used outside as a garden sculpture? Reminds me of Caldor's work. I know of three of these Trio of Birds sculptures, 2 signed and one attributed to C Jere' but unsigned. Obviously, attributed but unsigned must reduce value, correct?

Here is a pic of mine. It's been outside for over 15 years and I've never seen it "move in the wind".
Knocked over by deer and blown over by wind, but it's not exactly a weathervane (although it will turn at the base connection).

Onewildandcrazyguy, you have made my day with this pic! Thanks! "Move in the wind" meant wobble but not rotate--but wouldn't that be fantastic! My questions are many:
-Is yours signed, and if so, is it signed only on the base someplace? (Base of yours looks different, nicer, than one I recently saw.)
-Deer huh…do you live in a colder/cooler, snow in winter climate for the ones I know about are in California and Florida only?
-Any idea about how many were made?
-Have they been reproduced by Jonathan Adler Company?
Any answers would be most appreciated.

I think it was signed on the base at one point but its long gone. My experience witht the signatures are that they are easily "wiped away" when/if they are cleaned.
Yes, I live in Michigan...Kalamazoo to be exact. Deer aplenty. The bucks tend to get a little aggressive with it. There was a family of 3 red fox this morning playing aroind it:)
No idea of numbers and no idea if they have been reproduced...sorry.
I've seen them in chrome if I'm not mistaken...this one has a nice layer of rust on it from the exposure, I leave it out year round.
Sorry I couldn't be more help.

No, you were extremely helpful with info. The one I came across AT A BARN SALE here in western NY originally came from Florida, some woman who had a TV cooking show long before Julia Childs, as the story goes. (Want to find out who that was.) The person having the barn sale had reduced the price to $159 since it was unsigned. I called this morning after getting your info and pic and negotiated the price down to $120!!!! Picking it up late afternoon today!! SCORED!!!! Your pic convinced me I needed it for my shade garden. Thanks so much. Lost sleep over this last night!! Think I'll take a nap!!! Again, thank you for your help.

Hi! I'm new to this forum, so your help is greatly appreciated. I purchased this piece over the weekend at a flea market in Texas for 50 cents. After doing some research I've realized that this could be a C. Jere. Can someone please direct me to who can authenticate this? Or have you seen this before? Although, in very bad shape I thought it was beautiful.
