Description: Antique Honeywell's Thermometer designed by Henry Dreyfuss back in 1942. Dreyfuss’ role was not to produce the huge monuments of the era, like the Empire State Building, but everyday objects. Because of that, his influence was as great, if not greater, than that of the monument builders themselves. His objects contained the same elements of faith but were touched and used every day. They still are.Recently, a Crane Neuvogue Pedestal sink, c. 1939, designed by Dreyfuss, sold for $11,790 against an estimate of $2,000-$3,000 at Wright Auctions. The piece represents the pinnacle of Art Deco sink design. The Neuvogue fixtures designed by Dreyfuss for Crane display the streamline look of the late 1930s. The rectangular sink top was perched on a china pedestal, or a sleek tubular chrome plated stand. Neuvogue sinks featured a wide waterfall shaped integral china spout set on top of the flat sink top, with ovoid lever handles mounted on the sides of the spout. The basin was a distinctive half round shape. Machine Age Art Deco Industrial Design Patented Henry Dreyfuss Thermostats
