Gilbert Poillerat studied at the École Boulle, where he trained as an engraver and metal chiseler, graduating in 1921. Between 1921 and 1927, he worked for the wrought iron expert Edgar Brandt doing design and production work. In 1927, he began working for the Baudet, Donon and Roussel building structures company, and headed their decorative hardware division, producing tables and lamps. During the 1930s and 1940s, Poillerat continued to design furniture and architectural elements. He drew inspiration from a variety of sources, including historical architecture and nature. In 1934, he began producing jewelry. In the mid-1930s, under the influence of Christian Bérard and Jean Cocteau, Poillerat was inspired by the neo-baroque movement. In 1946, Poillerat left Baudet, Donon and Roussel to work as a teacher at the École Nationale des Arts Decoratifs. There he taught for 26 years, while continuing his own design production, collaborating with artists of the stature of André Arbus, Jean Pascaud and Vadim Androusov.
