Jean Charles

French
Jean Charles (born 1936 in Paris) is a renowned French designer celebrated for his influential work in decorative arts and lighting design. Best known for his collaboration with Maison Charles, a prestigious French lighting manufacturer, Jean Charles helped modernize the brand’s aesthetic starting in the late 1950s. His iconic designs, often inspired by natural forms like pinecones and corncobs, became emblematic of mid-century French luxury and craftsmanship.
 
In the early 1970s, his wife Chrystiane Charles took over the artistic direction of Maison Charles, continuing the legacy of innovative and elegant design. Together, their work helped establish Maison Charles as a leader in high-end decorative lighting, blending artistry with timeless sophistication.
