Bilingual edition French/English. The Lacloche house is one of the glories of Parisian jewelry. After modest beginnings on rue de Châteaudun in 1892, it established itself on rue de la Paix, with branches in London, Madrid and the seaside resorts of Nice, Biarritz, Cannes, Deauville, San Sebastian... The Lacloches experienced a meteoric rise from the Belle Époque, seducing the crowned heads of England, Spain, Greece and Siam as well as the aristocracy and Hollywood. Renowned for the elegance and refinement of their workmanship, the models signed Lacloche Frères, then Jacques Lacloche, were designed by the best workshops in Paris, such as Langlois, Péry, Rubel, Strauss Allard and Meyer or Verger, to whom this book pays a long-awaited tribute. Drawing on family archives and two extraordinary unpublished albums of gouaches of jewelry, boxes, and clocks created for the 1925 International Exhibition, this first monograph highlights, through more than 700 documents, the jeweler's exceptional creations, from Art Nouveau and Art Deco to the 1960s.
