If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a VHS copy of Eraserhead, rubbing your feet into a chevron-patterned rug like the one in the Black Lodge from Twin Peaks, or sitting in David Lynch's personalized director’s chair, now is your chance. Just a few months after his passing, Julien’s Auctions and Turner Classic Movies have put up an auction for around 450 items from the American filmmaker’s personal archive — including cinematic memorabilia, annotated scripts, and rare objects that once populated his everyday world.
Browsing through the collection feels like stepping into a personal and disorienting map — a mental inventory where everything is imbued with an enigmatic, ungraspable logic. From taxidermy deer heads and circular saws to vintage magazines and musical instruments, each item becomes a clue, a fragment of a creative mind that consistently blurred the lines between cinema, art, architecture, and design.


At the heart of the auction is his iconic director’s chair, estimated to be between 5,000 and 7,000 dollars, though it has already reached 27,000. Alongside it are furnishings from Lynch’s California home, including pieces he designed himself, such as a biomorphic side table and a custom conference table, and modernist classics by the likes of Eero Saarinen, George Nelson, Charles & Ray Eames, Isamu Noguchi and Milo Baughman. Unexpected yet fully aligned with Lynch’s world are more mundane objects, like a ceramic mug inspired by the Log Lady from Twin Peaks and professional espresso machines — including his beloved La Marzocco GS/3 — which nod to the filmmaker’s well-documented obsession with black coffee, a recurring motif in his visual storytelling.
The catalogue also includes books, signed graphic works, archival photographs (including a framed print of a nuclear explosion identical to the one featured in episode 8 of Twin Peaks: The Return), and rare printed materials. More than just a cross-section of Lynch’s artistic output, the auction offers a glimpse into the intimate fabric of his inner world, a landscape shaped by mystery and an unwavering devotion to the surreal.
