Tommi Anton Parzinger

Tommi Anton Parzinger was a German furniture designer and painter. He moved to New York City in 1932. He started his own company that focused on designing original types of household silverware. Most of the silverware he made in the company was custom, "hand-hammering" them from sheet metal. Parzinger also began working on building furniture and accessories to go with the pieces. His furniture then went on exhibition at the 1939 New York World's Fair. His focus turned to Expressionist painting during the final 15 years of his life, no longer working on designing furniture. Parzinger's works were titled "high-style modernism", which represented a "more idiosyncratic, rarefied midcentury design". Most of the pieces he created were custom-built for large studios, with Parzinger using "cosmopolitan-looking designs, involving costly, craft-intensive materials and processes like brass work and lacquer". His works were collected by famous clients, including Billy Baldwin, Marilyn Monroe, and a number of high-fashion New York families.
