Pierre Le Faguays (who often signed as Lourel, Fayral or Guerbe) was undoubtedly one of the most illustrious and quoted names of the French Art Deco sculpture. He worked mainly with materials such as bronze, terracotta, pâte de verre, stone, zinc, wood, alabaster, wrought iron and ivory. In Paris, Le Faguays commissioned the manufacture of his statuettes to the foundries Susse Frères , Edmond Etling , Max Le Verrier , Les Neveux de Jules Lehmann, M. Ollier and to the foundry of the Austrian Arthur Goldscheider, son of Friedrich Goldscheider. In the 1960s, his work was profusely reproduced and often signed as "Favral" or "Fayral". Le Faguays work can be found in museum collections, including the Musée d'Orsay, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the Casa Lis in Salamanca.
