Art Nouveau French Black , wooden Telephone Bronze
About the Item
Amazing Art Nouveau black and wooden French Telephone, by AOIP.
At the end of the 19th century, sixty-four workers from the Paris Chamber of Precision Instrument Workers came together to create their company. It was the secretary of this union chamber, Edmond Briat – future secretary general of the Consultative Chamber of Production Workers' Associations from 1907 to 1940 – who would be its first president. The first assembly elected a certain Viardot as first director.
Its activities are concentrated in the areas of telephony and public procurement, and include:
the manufacture of cameras and cinematographic equipment,
the manufacture of telegraphs and telephones (Marty 1910…),
the manufacture and installation of (multiple) telephone exchanges,
the manufacture of needle and electronic measuring devices and resistance boxes (including the famous “black box” known to students),
the manufacture of automation equipment (starters),
the manufacture of navigation equipment (gyrocompass), etc.
At the height of its capacities, it included two factories in Brittany (Morlaix, Guingamp), a factory in Béziers, one in Toulouse, one in Évry, the head office and another factory in Paris 13th, rue Charles-Fourier.
In the 1970s, it became the largest cooperative in Europe2, outside the USSR, with 4,600 employees. It markets its products under the brands “Association of Precision Instrument Workers”, then “AOIP”.
