    A little information about Georges Briard:
    Georges was born Jakub Brojdo in the Ukraine and raised in Poland. He changed his name to Jascha (Yascha) Brojdo when he moved to Chicago in 1937 to study at the Art Institute of Chicago, where he earned his MFA.
    After serving in the U.S. Army throughout World War II he moved to New York and began painting metal serving trays signing them Brodjo. He was hired by his friend to create designs for the M. Wille Company, who came up with the name Georges Briard to mark commercial pieces.
    As Georges Briard, Brodjo became an American award-winning designer, his designs stocked at high end department stores, such as Neiman Marcus and Bonwit Teller.
    Georges Briard designs became hugely popular throughout the 1950s to 70s, so it is prominent through many eras, but is most notable for the Mid Century Modern, Atomic & later 70s Kitsch designs.
    In 2004, Brodjo was awarded the Frank S. Child Lifetime Achievement Award by The Society of Glass and Ceramic Decorators, in honor of his extraordinary contributions to the glass and ceramic decorating industry.
