*L'Escalier de Cristal, old and famous Parisian house, specialized in ceramics and glassware, but also offering furniture, bronzes for art and furniture, had been taken over from 1885 – until 1923 – by the sons of Emile Pannier who formed Pannier Frères, at the corner of rue Scribe and rue Auber, next to the new Opera.
Their Far Eastern-inspired creations were, among other things, greatly appreciated by the public and critics.
The house won multiple awards and medals at various exhibitions, including the gold medal at the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1900.
In the field of furniture influenced by the Far East, Majorelle de Nancy, Edouard Lièvre and Gabriel Viardot also collaborated in the success of the Pannier Brothers. Some of their works are visible in the largest museums, such as the Hermitage in Saint Petersburg, the Musée d'Orsay or the Corning Museum of Glass in New York. As the house was sometimes the exclusive owner of the models, its furniture and decorative objects were often only signed by l'Escalier de Cristal, sometimes alongside the artist's signature. She also had a real creative role in personalizing these works with superb gilded bronzes, cloisonné enamel plaques, glass plaques with Japanese decoration or also including authentic Japanese elements.
