“Lucien Hirtz (1864-1928) tried his hands at everything at Boucheron, which he joined in 1893. He was a very gifted enameler who had previously worked with Falize. Hirtz’s work first attracted great acclaim at the “Exposition Universelle” in 1900. But his fabulous Art Deco work, however, emerged later in the century, most dramatically in the pieces he made for the 1925 “Exposition des Arts decoratifs”.
