Date: ca. 1937.As his career progressed, Puiforcat became increasingly fascinated by themathematical principles of geometry and proportion. By the 1930s he hadreplaced the stylized naturalism of his early work with geometric abstractionand bold simplicity. His pieces relied on their exquisite proportions andperfect finish for their effect. Decoration, when it appeared, was restrictedto the addition of glass or semiprecious stones. This change reflected notonly a shift in consumer taste but also Puiforcat's decision to join the Uniondes Artistes Modernes (UAM) in 1930.
