Georges Briard is a fictitious name chosen by the artist and glassware designer Jascha Broido. In 1947, he began selling decorative items and eventually started Georges Briard Design. He is most well-known for his signature dishware and glassware – everything from cups and plates to gold plated serving dishes. His signature collection was stocked at noted department stores, such as Neiman Marcus and Bonwit Teller.
