"Curtis Jere" is a collective identity representing the partnership of American artists **Curtis Freiler** and **Jerry Fels**, who joined forces in the 1960s to create decorative metal art under a single brand name. Operating as a design studio rather than an individual, the Curtis Jere collective specialized in mid-century modern sculptures, wall hangings, and furniture accents, combining abstract forms, stylized natural motifs, and a sleek, modern aesthetic. Their work was designed to be both artistic and commercially accessible, bridging the gap between fine art and home décor. Over time, the Curtis Jere name has become synonymous with collectible vintage metal art, celebrated for its creativity, craftsmanship, and distinctive retro-modern style.
