Paul Kiss
Paul Kiss helped elevate metalwork to an art form in the 1920s and 1930s, creating beautiful Art Deco-inspired furniture like table lamps and wall mirrors with exquisite ornate details. The pieces often featured geometric designs, plant motifs and human and animal figures.
Kiss was born in Hungary in 1885, but he settled in Paris in 1907. There, he worked under Raymond Subes and Edgar Brandt, two of the most celebrated metalworkers of the day. After World War I, Kiss opened his own studio and showroom on the city’s rue Léon-Delhomme. Kiss designed and produced numerous pieces of iron furniture throughout the 1920s and 1930s. He was commissioned to restore historic monuments and make new public monuments as well. Among his clients were the kings of Siam and Egypt.
Kiss produced the metalwork for the Monuments aux Morts war memorial in Levallois-Perret, France, for which he received the silver medal at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1924. In 1925, he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs and the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes.
In the 1920s, Kiss was a mentor to the skilled young designer Paul Fehér. Fehér later moved to the United States, where he became a distinguished designer for Rose Iron Works, continuing the tradition handed down to him by Kiss.

In the 1920s, Jean Noverdy created lamps with shades most often in glass with two layers between which he sprayed colored enamels to give a marmoreal look. Vases and molded glass shades are also part of his production. The same techniques used by Daum Frères, André Delatte and Muller Frères in this period. He also created vases and etched acid tones in the style of the Nancy school. Between 1926 and 1928, he was present at the Salon of the Society of French Artists in Paris.

A French master ironworker, Paul Kiss was born in 1885 in Belafalva, Romania, and trained in Central and Western Europe before settling in Paris.
He gained recognition and awards in the mid-1920s, when he gained recognition for his Art Nouveau and Art Deco-inspired creations with the arrival of Cubism and its clean lines. This is evidenced by an article by critic George Denoinville on the 1925 International Exhibition of Decorative Arts, and more specifically on Paul Kiss, whose contribution to interior and exterior furniture he celebrated through decorative objects such as console tables, doors, and radiator covers. According to him, Paul Kiss… "Master Ironworker works tirelessly towards this goal… What stood out above all was this interior partition door, so simple, rich in patterns and frames, that it appeared to us like a veritable metallic lacework. …Paul Kiss is, without a doubt, one of our most original artistic ironworkers…" Excerpts from "Mobilier et Décoration, December 1925," pp. 21-27.
After the First World War, Kiss opened his own studio and showroom on rue Léon-Delhomme. Kiss designed and produced numerous pieces of iron furniture throughout the 1920s and 1930s. He was commissioned to restore historic monuments and create new public monuments. His clients included the kings of Siam and Egypt.
Kiss created the metalwork for the Monuments aux Morts war memorial in Levallois-Perret, France, for which he received the silver medal at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1924. In 1925, he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs and the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes.
