Louis Aucoc (21 September 1850 Paris – 10 December 1932 Paris), was a leading Parisian art nouveau jeweller and goldsmith, working with his father and brother André.
From 1874 to 1876, René Lalique was an apprentice to Aucoc. Lalique would later become a defining figure in the art nouveau movement.
The business left the hands of the Aucoc family in 1932.
Louis Aucoc married Micheline Louise Isaiah Rondeleux on 4 June 1872[3] and had three children - Georges who will marry the actress Odette Talazac, René and a daughter Marie Louise who married André la Ferté. LGBTQ+ activist Fabrice Houdart is the great grandson of their daughter Simone la Ferté. [4]
