Julien Viard
Julien Henri Viard (Paris, 1883-1938) is a French glass sculptor-decorator, famous for his creations of perfume bottles during the 1920s.
Designer of hundreds of perfume bottles during the 1920s, Julien Viard received his training, first in bronze work, from Antonin Mercié and then from his father, the sculptor Clovis Viard. The latter was associated with the Parisian establishments Leblanc-Barbedienne, a renowned foundryman. During the 1900 World Fair, an ornamental bronze and gold marble fireplace designed by Clovis with the help of Denys Puech was noticed by the press. At the 1907 Salon, Julien received encouragement from the Société des artistes français, in the "medal and fine stone engraving" category and a medal in the decorative arts section. Clovis Viard is also known for having collaborated on perfume bottles between 1900 and 1910, including Extremely Rare by Caron.

Around 1910, Julien turned away from bronze to work with glass and produced his first bottles, sometimes associated with Henri Hamm (1871-1961) from which he drew inspiration. Julien and his father then joined forces with Georges Viollet-le-Duc (1874-1951) to found a glass company in Montreuil-sous-Bois around 1914 called "C. J. Viard", which, slowed down by the war, became mainly active from 1918.

Viard designs models to be blown or moulded, in agreement with the client, then melts them down in series by glass factories such as Baccarat or larger production companies such as Dépinoix or the Société parisienne de verreries. Usually, Viard would take care of the finishing touches. Julien Viard also worked in collaboration with Lucien Gaillard and Lalique.

Until the death of his father in 1927 (where it is sometimes difficult to distinguish the father from the son), Julien Viard produced a large quantity of models of vials, boxes and glass objects intended mainly for French but also American perfume houses. The list of his collaborations is so far difficult to evaluate because it was so abundant.

In 1938, after the death of Julien Viard, the workshop merged with the establishments C. Depinoix & fils.

Julien Henri Viard (Paris, 1883-1938) est un sculpteur-décorateur verrier français, célèbre pour ses créations de flacons de parfum durant les années 1920.
Concepteur de centaines de flacons de parfum durant les années 1920, Julien Viard reçoit sa formation, d'abord dans le travail sur bronze, auprès d'Antonin Mercié puis de son père, le sculpteur Clovis Viard. Ce dernier était associé aux établissements parisiens Leblanc-Barbedienne, fondeur réputé. Durant l'exposition universelle de 1900, une cheminée ornementale en marbre bronze et or conçue par Clovis avec la complicité de Denys Puech, fut remarquée par la presse. Au Salon de 1907, Julien reçoit les encouragements de la Société des artistes français, catégorie « gravure en médaille et sur pierre fine » et une médaille dans la section des arts décoratifs. Clovis Viard est par ailleurs connu pour avoir collaboré sur des flacons de parfums entre 1900 et 1910 dont Rarissime de Caron.

Vers 1910, Julien se détourne du bronze pour travailler le verre et produit ses premiers flacons, parfois associé à Henri Hamm (1871-1961) dont il va s'inspirer. Julien et son père s'associent ensuite à Georges Viollet-le-Duc (1874-1951) pour fonder vers 1914 une entreprise de verrerie à Montreuil-sous-Bois nommée « C. & J. Viard », qui, ralentie par la guerre, devient surtout active à partir de 1918.

La maison Viard conçoit des modèles destinés à être soufflés ou moulés, en accord avec le commanditaire, puis les fait fondre en série par des cristalleries comme Baccarat ou des entreprises de plus grosses productions comme Dépinoix ou la Société parisienne de verreries. Généralement, Viard se chargeait des finitions. Julien Viard a travaillé également en collaboration avec Lucien Gaillard et Lalique.

Jusqu'à la mort de son père en 1927 (où il est parfois difficile de distinguer le père du fils), Julien Viard produit une quantité importante de modèle de flacons, de boîtes et d'objets en verre destinés principalement aux maisons de parfum, françaises mais aussi américaines. La liste de ses collaborations est à ce jour difficile à évaluer tant elle fut abondante.

En 1938, à la mort de Julien Viard, l'atelier fusionne avec les établissements C. Dépinoix & fils.

Xata, these individual works of art are truly spectacular and one-of-a-kind masterpieces, each and every one. How amazing that you would have the opportunity to photograph these priceless bottles. The workmanship is fantastic and so lovely. Elegance, beauty, perfection. What I would like to know is the SCALE. How wide are they? Do you remember or can you guess? Macro is funny this way. A ladybug can look tall 10-feet if you do not know that it's actually tiny. So I can not imagine the size of these bottles because there is no reference!


Thank you so much for all the information too. I loved reading about your friend's grandfather, how cool !! :)


Fabulous work. I know it was so stressful for you but you managed just fine. Well done! :)

I can't really tell the size, I would say medium, maybe something like 15cm tall more or less... some were bigger than others, but this was almost 3 years ago so... I could ask my friend but she is travelling these days.
Obrigada Janet for your kind appreciation of the collection and my work.
