Director’s Notes:
A jeweller’s jeweller, the Georges Lenfant workshop was not only a renowned Cartier workmaster but also crafted pieces for many of the most prestigious Paris maisons, and later, for leading retailers around the world. Their client list was both extensive and illustrious, cementing a true legacy as unsung heroes of 20th-century French jewellery.
