AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Business card holder edited by ACME Studio, inspired by the “Playhouse White” motif by Frank Lloyd Wright, derived from the famous stained glass compositions created for the Coonley Playhouse (1912). This decor revisits Wright’s iconic geometric language — circles, lines and orthogonal shapes — here rendered in a light, clean palette, specially suited for a design object.

ACME Studio's collaborations around Frank Lloyd Wright sit at the intersection of architecture and design culture. Today, ACME creations are part of the permanent collections of major international institutions, including the Museum of Modern Art (New York), the Victoria and Albert Museum (London), the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.

The Frank Lloyd Wright editions published by ACME Studio have become highly collectible, due to their limited production and the absence of contemporary reissues, which makes vintage copies increasingly rare on the market.

Materials: handmade cloisonné enamel, silver-plated metal
Dimensions: approx. 3.5 × 6.5 cm
Weight: approx. 37 g
Markings: FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT / ACME / LOS ANGELES
Period: approx. 1987–1994
Condition: never used; the plastic shows yellowing due to aging.
Presentation: black case

A documented design object, this card holder illustrates the transposition of Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural heritage into the late-20th-century American design edition.
