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?
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.
