About Genet & Michon: Former students of the Ecole Boulle, Philippe Gene^t and Lucien Michon set up a design firm in 1911 that will make lighting fixtures in 1919. They are present at the Salon des artistes de´corateurs in 1922 with among other things some Art Deco furniture inspired by the Louis XVI style. But from the next Salon d'Automne, they exhibit a chandelier with frosted molded-pressed glass shades, matching sconces, and also a fruit bowl in glass. Set in the Marais, rue du Parc Royal in Paris, they specialize in creating and editing lighting, mirrors and decorative items made of molded-pressed glass. At the Salon des artistes de´corateurs in 1923, they present a table centre piece and frosted glass shades and plaques mounted on engraved bronze or wrought iron. The same year, Raymond Subes makes a wrought iron floor lamp base for Genet & Michon. From 1927, they participate in Salons des artistes decorateurs on several booths with glass frames, glass pressed lighting fixtures and a wall covering in pressed glass too, produced in collaboration with the Franco-Belgian Society in Lyon for the mechanical glass manufacturing (Libbey-Owens process), chandeliers, and a frosted glass globe on a bronze base. In this period they work for national palaces, the Elysee Palace, embassies, and ministries. The firm also collaborates with some major decorators such as Jacques-Emile Ruhlmann, Paul Follot, and Maurice Dufrene. Their presence is particularly strong at the Salon des artistes decorateurs in 1932 exhibiting with a large reflector vase in bronze and polished crystal tiles, and the lighting of many booths. Maison Genet & Michon continues its activities after the war, until the 1960s.
