Curtis Jeré (often written C. Jere) was a metalwork company known for wall sculptures and decorative objects, producing works that ranged from representational to abstract under the umbrella of Artisan House. The Curtis Jeré name was a nom de plume created from the names of founders Jerry Fels and Curtis (Kurt) Freiler, who established the company in California in 1963 with the goal of creating “gallery-quality art for the masses,” following earlier success in costume jewelry sold as Renoir and Matisse. Their brass and copper works were widely distributed through Raymor in the late 1960s; Artisan House was sold in 1972, production later moved to China in 2003, and Freiler continued pursuing a revival of their signature techniques until his death in 2013.
