Edgar Brandt: Art Deco Ironwork

A premier metalsmith in the early 20th century in France, Edgar Brandt (1880-1960) designed and fabricated some of the most beautiful architectural and decorative ironwork of his age. Lyrical gates, doors, and tables, including his most famous screen L'Oasis, appeared at the seminal 1925 Exposition des Arts Décoratifs, in Paris, which gave the name Art Deco to the new style of designs.

This book recounts his life and work with scholarly text and over 300 photographs.
