Jean Elysée Puiforcat (August 5, 1897 – October 20, 1945) was a French silversmith, sculptor and designer. Miller's Antiques Encyclopedia calls Puiforcat the "most important French Art Deco silversmith."

Life and career

Descartes (Amsterdam)

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. He worked briefly in Havana, Cuba from 1928 thru 1930. Fench painter and sculptor Henri Charlier who was born in the Montmartre quarter of Paris on 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 casted 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. 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. 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.

Legacy

Andy Warhol collected Puiforcat silverware, which he acquired while visiting Paris in the 1970s. In 1988, Warhol memorabilia was sold at Sotheby's. The collection sold for $451,000 and a tureen with an aventurine decoration sold for $55,000. Work by Puiforcat is held in the collection of the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum and the Victoria & Albert Museum. A chain of boutiques is named after him, which sell his designs and sculptures.

Not Durable Enough
Color: Colorful, Color: Colorful
These worked SO WELL... For one night. Maybe my pupper is just super destructive with his chewing, but he had a chunk of the top of the pineapple off less than 10 minutes after opening the package. That being said, the concept is perfect. He is very active when I'm trying to settle him down for the night if he hasn't had enough activity during the day. This translated to him trying to chew everything (including my arm, and RIP my comforter...) I wanted to find something for him to chew on that would help sooth his teeth/gums, since the other toys he loves weren't interesting enough to keep him engaged. Unfortunately, despite one night of his chewing relaxation, he chewed right through them. At least I know the concept of a frozen chew toy is the correct intervention. I'm just sad that these were destroyed so quickly!

Lay flat handle is a game change
This dog steak is made of quality steel easy to install and has held up overtime. I would highly recommend. I bought this dog steak over two years ago. Immediately and easily screwed it into the ground for a secure hold. The lay flat handle is convenient for attaching a cable or rope to tie your dog up to. The lay flat handle, makes it easy and convenient for mowing your lawn. I have never once pulled it or moved it in order to mow our grass and after two years, it has remained as secure as it was the day I screwed into the ground.
