Jean Puiforcat Sold at Auction Prices

Sculptor, b. 1897 - d. 1945

Jean Elysée Puiforcat (pronounced pwee-for-KAH) (5 August 1897 – 20 October 1945) was a French silversmith, sculptor and designer.[1][2] Miller's Antiques Encyclopedia calls Puiforcat the "most important French Art Deco silversmith."

Puiforcat served in World War I. After the war, he apprenticed as a silversmith and a designer. He lived in Paris. He designed in the art deco style. His silver work had smooth surfaces and was based on the geometric series. Ivory, onyx, lapis lazuli, and rosewood were used to decorate pieces. He also used gilding. Puiforcat left Paris and moved to Saint-Jean-de-Luz, around 1927.[1] He worked briefly in Havana, Cuba from 1928 thru 1930. French painter and sculptor Henri Charlier who was born in the Montmartre quarter of Paris in 1883 was a good friend of Puiforcat. Henry and Puiforcat exchanged many letters which his daughter Alizabeth Charlier kept along with photos of a trip that her father Henri made to Havana. The photos were at the shop where Puiforcat and a cuban sculptor by the name of Juan Comas were sculpting lions to be cast in bronze for an important Havana Avenue. Puiforcat, Henri and Comas became acquainted during his stay in Havana. From one of his letters from Cuba, he wrote about how little credit had been given to the Cuban sculptor, only because he (Puiforcat) was famous. He seemed to admire Juan Comas' talent very much. Henri and Puiforcat kept the friendship and even met in Mexico around 1943. Puiforcat co-founded the Union des Artistes Modernes.[4] He started designing tableware and by 1934 he also had designed liturgical silver. In 1941, he moved to Mexico. After his move, he started exhibiting in the United States.[1] Puiforcat's name is synonymous with Art Deco glamour; even in his day, the important French silversmith was renowned for the elegant, often mathematical simplicity of his geometric forms and the unexpected combination of flawless metalwork with brilliantly polished hardstones, semiprecious stones, or glass.

                  Cutlery: JEAN E. PUIFORCAT (Paris 1897-1945), France, 19th century. Silver. Some pieces are missing. Measurements: 24 cm (larger); 12 cm (smaller). Cutlery consisting of 17 table knives, 12 soup spoons, 18 table forks, 12 fish shovels, 12 fish forks, 12 snack spoons, 16 snack teaspoons, 12 snack forks, 12 ostas forks, 12 teaspoons and 12 dessert spoons. It is an example of refined silverware, characterized by the prominence of the structure in the first place: the decoration is conceived only as a complement to it, a maxim typical of any classical language. Jean Puiforcat (1897-1945) was born in Paris, the son of a goldsmith. He was self-taught as a designer, although he studied sculpture with Louis Lejeune. From 1922 he worked as an independent goldsmith. He designed his own works, mainly in a geometric Art Deco style. Puiforcat was addicted to geometry and the gilt section, Puiforcat owned a celebrated collection of 18th century silver. His pieces are in various museums around the world.
