About the Designer Jacques Adnet (1900–1984) was a visionary of French modernism and a key figure in Art Deco design. Renowned for his elegant use of leather, brass, and glass, Adnet collaborated with Hermès and led La Compagnie des Arts Français. His work reflects a seamless dialogue between classical materials and avant-garde design, making him a pioneer of 20th-century decorative arts.
