Affordable fixed charge Worldwide Store to door shipping offered by Seller in house. Maison Lucien Gau was established in Paris in 1860 and is specialized in the manufacturing of bronze artwork: lighting, small pieces of furniture or decorating objects. The company’s greatest asset lies in its deep, long lasting dedication and passion for bronze artwork. When Charles Gau started his activity 156 years ago, he also triggered a family tradition of bronze crafting know-how - this flame has been passed on to all six generations who have run Maison Lucien Gau. All have succesfully perpetuated the tradition of bronze artwork, whether in the process of creation, manufacturing or restoration. This combination of family and passion forms a cornerstone to which every staff member at Maison Lucien Gau commits –whatever their part in the process of product development. Charles Gau’s legacy is still vivid – first through his son Henri, and his later heirs. Today, Julien Gau represents the sixth generation in the family to run Maison Lucien Gau. This family affair, passed on from fathers to sons, ensures a safe transmission of the job’s trades and secrets – thus bestowing each piece from Maison Lucien Gau with unique value.
