Edmond Laurent Etling was a retailer of high qualityexclusive decorative items in bronze, ceramics and glass through his Paris shopat 29 Rue de Paradis.

His company, La Société Anonyme Edmond Etling, founded in1909 in Paris commissioned famous sculptors and artists such as Chiharu’s,Godard, Coli net, Sevin and others to design items for the shop, and these werethen manufactured for Etling, bearing his name.

The glass objects were made in Paris in glassworks in theChoisy-le-Roi area.

As a result of World War II, the shop closed in 1940 andbeing of Jewish descent, Edmond Etling was shipped to a concentration camp, anddied.

Production for Etling was thus confined to the Art Decoperiod between the two world wars.

Etling is best known for their pale blue opalescent items,of which plates and bowls are the most common, but they also produced items ingrey and frosted glass. Most had a molded signature "ETLING FRANCE"followed by a model number.
