Strauss & Co is pleased to present Mid-Century Modern Design Auction Cape Town, with one live and two online sales from 18 August to 16 September 2026.

Beyond including some of mid-century modern’s most important designs, the sales explore the evolution of the 20th century modern aesthetic.

It begins with art nouveau at the end of the 19th century and ends with postmodernism in the 1970s.

A pivotal chapter for design emerged. Society opened the door to modern technology and mass production. It championed functional form and demanded accessibility to good design. Over time in the modernist journey, nature and comfort were embraced. And eventually the rigidity of the modern rulebook was questioned, favouring playfulness and eclecticism.

There are around 160 lots across three sessions.

Mid-Century Modern spans furniture, jewellery, silver, ceramics and glass.

The sale begins its journey with art nouveau stalwart Alphonse Mucha.
