Why This Medal Matters

In the 1920s, Brazil supplied the vast majority of the world's coffee — and France stood among Europe's most devoted consumer markets. The Compagnie Franco-Brésilienne de Cafés was a Paris-based import firm operating at the center of that relationship, strengthening commercial ties between two nations during one of the most economically energetic decades of the 20th century. Corporate medals like this one were not currency — they were prestige objects, distributed to commemorate partnerships, celebrate trade success, and announce commercial ambition to the world.

Designed by the artist Ch. Pillet, this medal captures the visual spirit of 1920s Paris with extraordinary refinement. The obverse features a semi-draped allegorical female figure holding a branch — classical yet flowing, her form sitting precisely at the crossroads of late Art Nouveau sensibility and emerging Art Deco precision. The reverse presents ornamental floral motifs in clean, balanced composition — a distinctly Parisian expression of commercial pride rendered in burnished bronze.

Struck at an impressive 68mm in substantial bronze and preserved in uncirculated condition, this medal embodies everything the Roaring Twenties represented — global commerce expanding, artistic innovation flourishing, and an optimism about the future that would not survive the decade's end. It is a beautiful, historically grounded object from one of the 20th century's most culturally vibrant moments.

Perfect for:

• Collectors of Art Deco medals, French commemoratives, and interwar period objects
• History lovers drawn to 1920s global commerce and the coffee trade

• Anyone looking for a rare, elegant piece of 20th century commercial history
