This glass signage came from the world–renowned Bon Marché department store in the heart of Paris. The design, by Boileau, epitomizes the period in which they were created. The very essence of Art Deco design lies in the concept that art was not confined to the fine arts, but that it could be applied to functional objects. This glass sign is the fusion of design and fine craftsmanship.
