Born in New York City in 1937, Seandel established his Manhattan studio in 1963 and became a pivotal figure associated with the Mid-Century Modern and American Brutalist movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorking exclusively with solid metals such as brass, bronze, copper, and steel, his pieces are executed entirely by hand using traditional welding and torch-cutting techniques. A defining characteristic of his work is the complete absence of artificial finishes, enamels, or veneers; instead, he achieves vibrant surface colours and deep patinas solely through proprietary heat and acid treatments developed within his studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeandel’s output consists almost entirely of unique, one-of-a-kind commissions and limited-edition items rather than mass-produced lines. His portfolio spans iconic sculptural coffee tables, consoles, and wall-mounted art pieces tailored to distinct spatial requirements, alongside monumental public and corporate installations. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTHIS LISTING\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e 1960s\/70s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1m tall, 1.8m (71\") wide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e Great to excellent condition.
