Louis Majorelle (1859 - 1926) was an outstanding French designer and furniture decorator of the early 20th century. Louis worked at the École des Beaux-Arts until 1877, and then took over the management of the family-owned manufacture in Nancy, specializing in the production of furniture and faience. Majorelle's pieces have been exhibited at many prestigious exhibitions, including d'Art Décoratif. But the company reached its true heyday in 1900, taking part in the World Exhibition: after that, Majorelle stores were opened in Nancy, Paris, Lyon and Lille. Nowadays, Louis' work can be seen in many museums, as well as private collections. The pieces of furniture from this designer are of antique and collectible value.
