About the Item

A monumental four-part sculpture that fits together to form a four-sided pyramid titled "Eye of the Pyramid" by the noted late artist Bijan Bahar. Mr Bahar sadly passed away a couple of years ago. We had the pleasure of getting to know him as he spent his last few years in Palm Springs. This was created in the late 1980s and is signed and numbered 5/6. It is in good age appropriate condition but has been recently re-polished. There are some minor marks from handling but nothing major. There is some cloudiness to the lucite from age. Note the bottom is sanded to a Frost finish by the artist. Each piece is signed and numbered. It was purchased directly from the artist and his team re-polished it. Please note that Bijan blunted the points of the tops for safety reasons when he created the sculpture.

Three Bijan Bahar Triangular Lucite Sculptures

Three Bijan Bahar Triangular Lucite Sculptures

By Bijan Bahar

Located in Palm Springs, CA

A nice group of three triangle shaped and faceted Lucite sculptures done and signed Bijan Bahar in the 1970s. The artist confirmed the timeframe himself. They are each signed and have been buffed out a bit by the artist himself. They still retain some surface scratches and imperfections with some edge roughness as the artist wanted them to retain some semblance of their true age. The tallest dimensions are given below, but the middles one is approx 15" tall, 6.5" W and 1.75" deep. The smallest is 13" tall, 6" wide and 1.5" deep.

Bijan Bahar Lucite Sculpture

Bijan Bahar Lucite Sculpture

By Bijan Bahar

Located in Palm Springs, CA

A massive 450 pound Lucite sculpture by the noted artist Bijan Bahar. This piece is enormous and quite impressive. It looks great with the led light changing colors which will accompany the piece. It features an etched signature. This piece was hand-craved out by the artist and when viewed at the proper angle the hollowed out circle looks like multiple circles. Quite a stunning effect. it sits on a ring of Lucite and has an acrylic base plate. The sculpture is 22.75 inches tall but with the ring, which allows it to be rotated quite easily and base is 25.5 inches tall. This sculpture has a bit of cloudiness to it and some minor scuffs and marks. A truly monumental work by a talented artist.
