Pink Flamingo, 1980s Lacquered Jewelry Box by Hollis Fingold, Signed USA
$600.00
Pink Flamingo Lacquered box handmade in the 1980s by Hollis Fingold at Radar Design in Denver, Colorado. Airbrushed paint on wood. Signed. Depth: 4.5", Width: 4.75", Height: 7".
The light pink body of the box is airbrushed with cow-like black spots and small, sporadic splatters. The feet and handle have a Matrix green grid pattern over a deep black background, giving the box a futuristic, tech-inspired energy. A distinctly tropical robot vibe.
The element of surprise continues to unfold with the interior padding, which has vibrant sky-blue fabric covered with meticulously hand-drawn black splatters. This design is complemented by a neon pink zig-zag pattern that crosses the square padding diagonally. The bottom of the box has an electric turquoise-blue/green glow.
Shaped like alien pets, Hollis Fingold's boxes appear to hover on their four pointy legs, with lid handles resembling punk hairdos. They are sensuous yet dangerous creatures that one must adore to tame and open.
ABOUT HOLLIS FINGOLD: Born in 1944, Fingold's creative journey led her to Denver, Colorado, where she established her studio, Radar Design, in 1986. Her telephones, boxes, and furniture have graced television shows, movies, commercials, and celebrities' interiors, finding their way into department stores, art galleries, and museum stores worldwide, from China to Hollywood (including the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, Bloomingdale's, and Disney World).
