MCM-006 Cityscape Style Illuminated Pedestal in Brass & Chrome — Paul Evans Style, Working Light, 22.5" H

A striking mid-century modern illuminated pedestal in the celebrated Cityscape style of Paul Evans — featuring the iconic tessellated brass and chrome patchwork surface that defined one of the most sought-after design series of the 1970s. Fully functional illuminated interior. Unmarked.

Paul Evans (1931–1987) was one of the most significant American furniture designers and sculptors of the 20th century. His Cityscape series — inspired by the Manhattan skyline and characterized by its geometric mosaic of brass and chrome — is among the most collectible American mid-century design work, with pieces regularly selling between $600 and $99,000+ at auction and on 1stDibs.

This pedestal closely follows the Cityscape aesthetic in both material and construction. Please note: this piece is unmarked and is offered as being in the style of Paul Evans — buyers seeking a documented signed example should examine this piece with that in mind.
