Just a few steps north of the Park Avenue exhibition space used by Heritage Auctions is Bernardaud, a purveyor of fine Limoges porcelain in midtown. I was delighted to see a window display of the tableware company's collaboration with the artist Jeff Koons at its showroom. The work is a sizable piece called Lobster issued in a limited edition of 99. I am fascinated by Koons's serious approach to a playful subject: it took over eight years for his workshop to create this porcelain edition in the form of a cartoon crustacean pool inflatable.
