If Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, art enthusiast James Pessy flatters the great Art Deco masters unlike anyone. Original bronze sculptures of the elegant dancers and Egyptian maidens of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods created by masters such as D.H. Chiparus, Max LeVerrier and Marcell Bouraine may cost $160,000 or more - a bit pricey for the most people. Pessy, an ardent admirer of the period and owner of the Art Deco Decor in Irvine, creates quality reproductions of these great works, at a fraction of the cost. He developed a method for reproducing the metal art of these early masters and other artistic pieces of decor, including antique chandeliers, lamps, wall sconces and candelabras.
