Eric Schmitt Up Close.

 

Eric Schmitt was born in Toulouse in April of 1955. He left Paris in 1997 to live and work at the edge of the Fontainbleau Forest.

His pieces, once thoughtfully designed in his workshop, are entrusted to the best craftsmen in France. Reviving the French tradition of decorative arts through modernity, his creations are produced and signed in limited editions for collectors with special appreciation.

Eric had his first show at Ralph Pucci in 2006. This November he will have an opening, featuring a new collection as well as a tabletop book dedicated to his works.

Offered below is a personal glance into his life, work, and forthcoming book.
