Henri Perichon (1910 - 1970), known as "Henry," is one of the most inventive jewelry designers of the period. His studio was located in Lyon, working on a medium such as bronze, silver, white metal, or resin (Talosel). His style is hard to define, reflecting many influences, from Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque, to Art Deco. Many famous actresses from the 1950s and the 1960s like Claudette Colbert, Suzanne Flon, Michele Morgan, and Edwige Feuillere wore his jewelry on stage and in real life.
