Jean Perzel was a German-born French glassmaker, goldsmith, and designer. A highly successful and influential figure of the early 20th-Century design world, his eponymous lighting company continues to operate to this day. Born on May 2, 1892 in Bavaria, Germany, Perzel went on to work and live in Paris as a glassmaker, becoming a naturalized French citizen after serving in the Foreign Legion during World War I.
In 1923, he established his own company specializing in modern lighting. Perzel notably created original works for the King of Belgium, the French presidents Georges Pompidou and Charles De Gaulle, and other world dignitaries. He died in 1986 in Paris, France.
