It was in 1898 , that the amazing Maison (Lampe) Berger story started. Maurice Berger, a pharmaceutical dispenser, invented a revolutionary new technology, a catalytic diffuser, which purifies the air in enclosed spaces.

These little lamps, which destroy odors, culminated during the1930s with the addition of fragrance to their cleansing ability. Maison (Lampe) Berger soon became a collector’s item, as certain lamps were created by designer such as Cristal de Baccarat, Cristalleries de Saint Louis, Emile Gallé, René Lalique, Coco Chanel, Jean Cocteau, Colette or Picasso and most recently Jonathan Adler.
