Line Vautrin was a French artist born in 1913. She acquired the technical skills in chasing and gilding thanks to her father, an art bronze worker.

With her talent and creativity, Line Vautrin quickly distinguished herself with her works that combine mischief, humor and poetry.

Line Vautrin was particularly known for her engraved rebuses to be deciphered, which made her famous and earned her the nickname of “metal poetess”. Among his most famous creations are the Saute-Mouton necklaces, the Plat comme la galette, Skinny as a Nail and Long as a Giraffe boxes.
