Their company became known for producing decorative metal sculptures, often with a mid-century modern aesthetic. These pieces were widely distributed and became popular for their artistic designs and relatively affordable prices.

Curtis Jere sculptures often depict scenes from nature, abstract forms, or architectural subjects. The Parisian Cafe sculpture exemplifies their style, using metal to create a whimsical and stylized representation of a building with cafe elements. These sculptures are collected for their vintage appeal and unique designs, embodying the artistic trends of the mid-century era. See less
