Louis Albert Carvin (1875–1951) was a French sculptor and decorative artist renowned for his refined art deco sculptures, clocks and figural objects. His works combined naturalistic animal subjects and classical forms with the geometric sophistication that defined French art deco. Carvin’s designs were often produced by prominent French manufacturers such as F. Pellissier and remain highly collectible examples of interwar decorative art.
