Jacques Adnet, born April 20, 1900 in Châtillon-Coligny, died October 24, 1984, is a French architect and designer.
He worked with his twin brother, Jean Adnet, who received identical training in his. Under a common signature until 1928, they received the same awards.

It creates geometric furniture with new materials while keeping a concern for elegance that is its own, making the link between modernity, and tradition.

Over time, he uses the metal and glass more and more with which he makes seats, bedside tables in tube, but also small furniture entirely made up of silver ice cream and screwed on a frame. He abandons the old forms that he does not even try to adapt.

However, it will remain faithful to certain types of furniture such as support furniture in countless variations. He also worked a lot on furniture garnished with leather with saddler stings. This piece has an attribution mark,
