Biography

Paco Durrio (real name Francisco Durrio y Madrón), Spanish ceramicist and jeweller. From 1883, Durrio lived mainly in Paris, where he exhibited his jewellery with great success at the 1904 Salon d'Automne. Even though most of his life was spent in France, he is considered as a representative of Spanish Art Nouveau, as his work is strongly imbued with the culture of his homeland.
