Jacques Adnet

(French, 1900–1984)

Jacques Adnet was a furniture designer known for his mirrors, lamps, chairs, and tables. Each piece was designed with the clean lines and simple forms of an unadorned Art Deco style, and subsequently rendered in glass, metal, leather, or wood. Born on April 20, 1900 in Chatillon-Coligny, France, he studied architecture under Charles Louis Genuys at the École des Arts Décoratifs in 1916. From 1923 until 1928, he worked with his twin brother Jean Adnet, under the collaborative moniker Jean & Jacques Adnet. Together they would exhibit at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes in 1925, where the term Art Deco is said to have first been coined. Jacques Adnet went on to direct La Compagnie des Arts Français until its closure in 1959, collaborating with Charlotte Perriand, Francois Jourdain, and others who shared his innovative approach to design. The designer died on October 29, 1984 in Paris, France.
