The renowned Capon Brothers, Georges and Eugène, distinguished themselves as leading designers of their time. Operating from their establishment at 40 rue de l ‘Assomption, Georges specialized in silversmithing, while Eugène was known for his engraving skills. Their remarkable success at the 1925 Art Décorative exhibit in Paris, France, solidified their reputation. They crafted a modest yet elegant line of chandeliers, table lamps, and wall sconces.
