"Attributed Gilbert Poillerat" There have been many important French designers associated with Art Deco and through the 1930’s, ’40’s and beyond who worked in wrought iron. One usually thinks of Edgar Brandt, Raymond Subes, and Paul Kiss. For quite a while, when Art Deco was enjoying its first flush of recognition in the 1970’s, Gilbert Poillerat remained relatively unknown. This would soon change as the natural progression of design exploration began to move into the 1930’s and beyond, and Poillerat would emerge as one of the most original and important designers of his time. Gilbert Poillerat was born in 1902 in a small town in France that, oddly, had three names – Mer, Loir et Cher. Like many other furniture designers, he attended the famed École Boulle, where he trained as a metal chiseler and engraver, graduating in 1921. Following his graduation, he worked with arguably the best and most influential wrought-iron master – Edgar Brandt. He worked for Brandt for over seven years in both design and production. There can be no doubt that this time was hugely important, not only in furthering his training and perfecting his technique, but also exposing him to the new ideas that had blossomed forth during the Art Deco movement, when wrought-iron escaped the constraints of tradition that had kept it static for so long. In 1927, Poillerat left Brandt, and began working for Baudet, Donon and Roussel, a firm specializing in construction frameworks. He was placed in charge of their decorative iron-work division, which produced tables...
