It takes us straight to the height of the Art Deco period. Its elegant curves, its top highlighted by a twisted wooden rush, its legs with tapered sheathed legs ending in small volutes, and its three brass handles contrasting perfectly with the amboyna burr, make it a work of rare finesse, characteristic of the work of Louis Süe and André Mare. This desk was made for one of the shops of the famous Linzeler family, known for their century-long involvement in jewelry and silversmithing. It has been fully restored, polished with traditional shellac varnish, and is in superb condition. It is stamped with the mark of La Compagnie des Arts Français.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLiterature: Florence Camard, Süe \u0026amp; Mare et la Compagnie des Arts Français, Les éditions de l'amateur, Paris, 1993, similar model referenced under the number 238, page 279.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe two French designers met at the Académie Julian Louis Süe.

Breaking away from Art Nouveau, their goal was to perfectly combine aesthetics and functionality. After founding the Ateliers Français in 1912, they went further in their quest for innovation, elegance, and refinement, establishing the Compagnie des Arts Français in 1919.

The piece has an ovoid shape, tapering into a circular base. It is entirely covered in a smooth yellow glazed earthenware, giving it a luxurious shine and enhancing its decorative and eye-catching appearance.  The lid features pronounced vertical grooves, creating a ribbed pattern. Its rounded top, shaped like a dome, made it easier to handle when opening and closing, while improving the seal.  This particular jar was part of a collection displayed in the Fontaine Pavilion at the first International Exposition of Art Deco in 1925.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eLiterature : Florence Camard, Süe \u0026amp; Mare et la Compagnie des Arts Français, Les éditions de l'amateur, Paris, 1993, similar model found page 258 and page 259.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe two French designers met at the Julian Louis Süe Academy.
