Pierre d'Avesn was a French glassmaker who was active from the 1920s to the 1980s. He is best known for his Art Deco glassware, which is characterized by its sleek, geometric designs and vibrant colors.

D'Avesn was born in 1901 in Paris. He began his apprenticeship at the age of 14 at the renowned glassmaking firm of René Lalique.
