About the Artcurial May 2025 Sale

In May 2025, Artcurial celebrates the excellence of Italian design with an exceptional sale of 100 iconic pieces, echoing the 100th anniversary of the 1925 International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts. This centenary pays tribute to craftsmanship, with a special focus on glass—a fascinating and captivating material that has shaped the history of design.

The selection for this sale is curated by Justine Despretz, a specialist in Italian design and head of the department at Artcurial for the past eight years.

Ahead of the auction, an exclusive preview of selected pieces will be unveiled during the Salone del Mobile in Milan, at Artcurial’s Corso Venezia headquarters, under the artistic direction of Andrea Caravita (Moschino). A unique opportunity to discover these masterpieces in a new and immersive scenography.
