Jeré is the design collaboration of brothers-in-law Jerry Fels and Kurt Freiler.  Freiler, a German immigrant and manufacturing expert with a knack for reinventing the use of tools, met New York City-based artist Fels in the 1940s. Initially partners in a costume jewelry company, the pair launched Artisan House in 1964 to produce "gallery-quality art for the masses.” It quickly became known for its collection of eclectic, decorative wall décor and other objects ranging from the representational to the highly abstract.  Each piece, crafted in California, bore the C. Jeré sign
