For sale is an authentic, exceptionally rare glass tile mosaic panel designed by the legendary American modernist Evelyn Ackerman for ERA Industries circa 1958. This piece belongs to her iconic, highly collectible mid-century "Bottles & Pitchers" series. This specific 24-inch model features a beautifully condensed, stylized composition of abstract carafes and vessels. It is meticulously composed of hundreds of hand-laid glass tile tesserae, beautifully preserved inside its original clean-profile dark wood frame. The vivid color harmony—juxtaposing deep blues, vibrant greens, stark blacks, and a focal terracotta red—epitomizes the pinnacle of late-1950s coastal modernism. Condition: Pristine, museum-quality vintage condition on the front. No missing glass tesserae, no cracks, and the grout lines remain exceptionally clean and secure. Complete with heavy-duty hanging hardware. (Note: To ensure structural stability and eliminate bowing over its 65+ year lifespan, the heavy panel has been securely and professionally re-backed with a modern wood substrate panel, preserving the artwork flawlessly for decades to come). Specifications: • Designer: Evelyn Ackerman (1924–2012) • Maker: ERA Industries (Los Angeles / hand-crafted in Mexico City) • Medium: Glass tile mosaic • Dimensions: Approx. 24" Width x 12" Height (approx. 61 cm x 30.5 cm) Pieces of this caliber by Ackerman routinely command premium prices at dedicated international design auctions. This is an incredible opportunity to acquire a certified piece of mid-century architectural art history within Ireland without foreign import taxes or transit risks. Delivery available
