Georges Fonsèque was a French goldsmith and jeweler active in the late
late XIXᵉ and early XXᵉ centuries. In 1885, he joined forces
with Émile Olive, to found the "Fonsèque Olive" house
in Paris. This collaboration gave birth to creations
emblematic of the Art Nouveau period.
After Émile Olive's death in 1902, Georges Fonsèque
continued to run the company alone for around twenty years.
Their workshop was located at 85, rue de Richelieu in Paris.
