Karl Springer: A Designer Guide

Karl Springer was an American designer celebrated for his luxurious use of exotic materials — lacquered goatskin, shagreen, brass, and lucite — in service of clean, glamorous, architectural forms. Rising to prominence in the 1970s and 80s, Springer's furniture bridged mid-century modernism and Hollywood Regency glamour, prized for its bold silhouettes and meticulous craftsmanship.

Original Karl Springer pieces are increasingly rare and highly collectible, and pieces in the style of Karl Springer capture his signature aesthetic at a more accessible price point.
