Mauboussin is a French jewelry firm famous for its Art Deco and Retro jewelry and objects. Though its roots go back to 1827, the firm first gained international acclaim in the 1920s. Its rise into the ranks of Parisian fine jewelers is attributed to Georges Mauboussin, an enterprising and talented jeweler who entered his uncle’s firm, Noury, as an apprentice in 1877. Soon Mauboussin became a partner and in 1903, he became the sole proprietor.1 After moving and expanding the firm’s Paris location, Mauboussin began to extend its international presence, setting up boutiques and exhibiting jewelry all over the world.
