Lot 117 Sold for 23,750 USD Edgar William Brandt (24 December 1880 – 8 May 1960) was a French ironworker and prolific weapons designer. In 1901 he set up a small atelier at 76 rue Michel-Ange in the 16th arrondissement in Paris, where he began designing, silversmithing, and forging small items such as jewelry, crosses, and brooches. His business began to take off with special commissions such as the door of the French Embassy in Brussels, the Escalier Mollien stairs in the Louvre, and the stair and balcony railing for the Grand Theatre Municipal de Nancy.

He also invented discarding-sabot artillery shells[citation needed] and contributed substantially to the development of effective HEAT-warhead weapons for infantry anti-tank use through his development of heatrifle grenades.[citation needed] Brandt's showroom at 101 Boulevard Murat in 1923 Following the war Brandt embarked on his most productive years as a designer, starting to show his work in the Salon d’Automne every year.

Throughout the rest of his career his work spanned from iron gates and fireplace grills...
