Pierre Dunand (1914-1996)

In the 1930s, cabinetmaker Eugène Printz and dinanderie-maker and lacquerer Jean Dunand joined forces to create some outstanding furniture—as witness this 1934 piece rediscovered in a private home.

This ideally slender 68 cm/26.7 in. vase was created from a single sheet by Jean Dunand, then patinated in black. A true tour de force.

With a vase by Jean Dunand, a mirror by Vautrin, a dish by Picasso and a table by Adrien Audoux-Minnet, this handpicked group of artists triumphed in Antibes.

A Kashmir sapphire and three leopards painted in lacquer by Jean Dunand attracted generous prices at auction.

Leading names in the field and other lesser-known artists found new homes and well-deserved peace.

In the 1930s, the Art Deco cabinetmaker created a complete set of furniture commissioned by an avant-garde woman for her Paris flat. Preserved intact in a Provençal mansion, these lavish pieces unleashed a torrent of impressive bids.

Son of antique dealer Didier Aaron and brother of Hervé Aaron, who chaired the Syndicat national des antiquaires and the Salon du dessin, Olivier Aaron was a leading figure on the Paris market. He died on 25 November 2018.

If there is one outstanding theme in Jean Dunand's work, it is the conquest of the horse. This panel reveals his talents as engraver, sculptor and lacquer-worker.

The radical architect and designer of the 1930s created a set of eight pieces, whose simplicity contrasted with the design of Artisans de Marolles.

This lacquered wooden desk by the famous Art Deco team Eugène Printz and Jean Dunand is one of the outstanding pieces from the same interior that will soon be dispersed in Arles, Provence.
