About Paul Kiss
Paul Kiss (1885–1962) was a distinguished Hungarian metalworker, originally from Belabalva (modern-day Romania), who established his career in Paris. After moving to Paris in 1907, he worked with leading metalworkers Edgar Brandt and Raymond Subes before opening his own workshop and showroom on rue Delhomme following World War I.
Kiss was known for designing and producing exquisite metalwork, including collaborations with Paul Feher, and restoring historic monuments. His prestigious clientele included the Kings of Egypt and Siam (now Thailand).
His work is characterized by intricate motifs inspired by birds, plants, geometric forms, and occasionally human figures. Paul Kiss’s wrought iron creations—ranging from lighting fixtures, stands, consoles, doors, grilles, to railings—are noted for their exceptional technical quality and delicate craftsmanship. His designs often feature slender mounts supporting alabaster, engraved glass, or marble panels and shades. Kiss’s style sometimes resembles that of Michel and Jules Nics, combining traditional forms with masterful artisanal technique.

Paul Kiss
Paul Kiss helped elevate metalwork to an art form in the 1920s and 1930s, creating beautiful Art Deco-inspired furniture like table lamps and wall mirrors with exquisite ornate details. The pieces often featured geometric designs, plant motifs and human and animal figures.
Kiss was born in Hungary in 1885, but he settled in Paris in 1907. There, he worked under Raymond Subes and Edgar Brandt, two of the most celebrated metalworkers of the day. After World War I, Kiss opened his own studio and showroom on the city’s rue Léon-Delhomme. Kiss designed and produced numerous pieces of iron furniture throughout the 1920s and 1930s. He was commissioned to restore historic monuments and make new public monuments as well. Among his clients were the kings of Siam and Egypt.
Kiss produced the metalwork for the Monuments aux Morts war memorial in Levallois-Perret, France, for which he received the silver medal at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1924. In 1925, he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs and the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes.
In the 1920s, Kiss was a mentor to the skilled young designer Paul Fehér. Fehér later moved to the United States, where he became a distinguished designer for Rose Iron Works, continuing the tradition handed down to him by Kiss.
