Very little is known about Antoine Bricteux et Fils. Having registered the company mark in Paris in 1866, it remained unaltered and valid until 1927, although there is no record of the firm's creations being exhibited in the Salons or any of the World Exhibitions in the intervening years. The few jewels which are known are of excellent quality, fine workmanship and strongly embedded in the Art Nouveau tradition, repeatedly utilising the synonymous motifs of that period; including sinuous form and naturalistic decoration.
