Monograph on a family of three generations of Parisian jewellers. Alphonse founded the firm in 1860 and it was carried on by his son Georges and grandson Jean, who created some of the most famous and much photographed Deco designs.

This catalog was prepared to accompany the exhibition in Paris at the Musee des arts decoratifs in 1983. Marie-Noel de Gary curated the exhibition and along with Evelyne Posseme wrote the catalog essays and entries. Separate chapters on each of the Fouquets: Alphonse Fouquet director Maison Fouquet 1860-1895; Georges Fouquet director Maison Fouquet 1895-1936; and Jean Fouquet active in Maison Fouquet from 1925-1960. Illustrated in color and black & white with photographs and drawings.

Georges Fouquet (1862–1957) was a French jewelry designer best known for his Art Nouveau creations. He was part of a successful jewellery family; his father Alphonse Fouquet designed in a neoclassicist style, and his son Jean Fouquet designed in the Art Deco style.

Career

In Paris, Fouquet joined his father in the family business in 1891. He took over the running of the company in 1895. In 1900, he opened a new jewelry shop at 6 rue Royale in Paris, designed by the illustrator Alphonse Mucha.

In 1900, Fouquet was featured at the Exposition Universelle in Paris. His collaboration with Mucha was prominently showcased, unveiling a highly theatrical line of jewelry characterized by intricate enamel work, natural motifs, and the innovative use of materials like ivory, mother-of-pearl, and gemstones. This collection became an iconic representation of the Art Nouveau style.

Fouquet was a fantasist, and while his creations can be associated with the Lalique school, it is not due to imitation, but rather his imaginative talent. His work is often complex and holds a foremost place in the Art Nouveau movement. Contrary to Lalique but like Henri Vever, Fouquet expressed himself through more synthetic geometric forms.

He also designed jewels for French actresses such as Sarah Bernhardt. His work can be found at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Petit Palais. The interior of Fouquet's shop is preserved at the Carnavalet Museum in Paris. In 1984, a major exhibition of three generations of the Fouquet Jewellers was made by the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris; the exhibition was then shown at the Rietberg Museum in Zurich.

Comfortable, durable and great for everyday use
Color: Brown, Size: Queen(90"x90")
This blanket is super cozy and soft, and it’s true to size. I got the brown color, and the quality is excellent. I’ve washed it multiple times, and it comes out looking like new every time. It’s on the thinner side but still keeps you warm—perfect for lounging on the couch or sitting by the fire. The fabric stretches a bit, but not in a way that would cause it to rip or break. Pros: Soft and cozy True to size Maintains quality after washing Lightweight yet warm Slight stretch without damage Cons: Thin, may not be sufficient for very cold nights Conclusion: Overall, this blanket is comfortable, durable, and great for everyday use. It’s ideal for relaxing at home while staying warm.

Nice Lightweight Blanket
Color: Light Camel, Size: King(108"x90")
I bought this because my winter blanket is too heavy for the summer. I'm a hot sleeper and have to have the temperature at 68 at night because the bedroom is upstairs above a garage and it gets warm. This blanket is very soft and not thick and I don't get hot. I have a queen size bed but I bought a king size so it looks more like a bedspread. It doesn't hang down far on one side but that is the side that people don't see so that's fine. If you like a blanket on the thinner side yet still warm enough, you will like this.

Bright color & true to size
Color: Red, Size: Twin(60"x80")
I ordered red. Color was vibrant although it has a touch of Orange - not the deep red I thought I would get. Funky chemical smell when I opened it - it went away after I spread it out for a few hours. It's soft with hemmed edges. A little thin but OK for the bed I ordered it for. Price was right & I would probably order additional colors if warranted in the future. It arrived quick.
