Jean Filhos is a French sculptor, born in 1921, who studied architecture, sculpture and silversmithing. It was not until 1960 that he started to work with synthetic materials. He exhibited his silver work at the Michel Cachoux Gallery in 1966 and eight years later, he created a coffee set for Sèvres. He is known for his gold jewellery which is full of movement and expression, and is established in numerous galleries in Paris and Brussels. In addition, Jean Filhos has had his jewellery shown in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs and the Louvre in Paris. He died in Bourges on August 25, 2002. He initially studied architecture, which he was forced to abandon by the war. Then he worked as an architect, while developing an interest in sculpture. From 1958 onwards he worked primarily as a sculptor and goldsmith. His first sculptures were in bronze (lost wax technique), but since 1960 Jean Filhos used synthetic resins, which gave him a greater free. He does many jewels for famous artist in the world.
