.
Pierre ROUSSEL (1723 - 1782)
He was awarded the title of Master Cabinetmaker in 1745.
Thanks to his skills as a cabinetmaker and, above all, as an outstanding marquetry craftsman, he quickly acquired a high reputation.
In 1762, he became a juror of his community.
By 1767, he was considered one of the greatest cabinetmakers of his time, as confirmed by the "Almanach d'indication générale ou du Vray Mérite" of 1769, which cited him as one of the leading cabinetmakers in Paris.
Highly appreciated by his colleagues, he became a deputy of the cabinetmakers' body in 1777, then syndic 2 years later0.
His abundant and varied productions were adapted to all the styles of the 18th century, with elegance and refinement...
Many Louis XV commodes, with rosewood or violetwood veneers, are decorated with flower marquetry or ribbon bows.
An inventory of his wares, taken after his death, proves the prosperity of his business.
