Éléments de ferrures et bronzes anciens pour meubles: Fournier bronzier

Fournier (Firm : Paris, France) · 1907 · Paris · 12 pictures

A plate-book of French decorative bronze mounts and ornaments issued by the Paris bronze-founder Fournier in 1907 for cabinetmakers and furniture makers. The pages are grids of numbered cast-bronze pieces, drawn in fine line, showing ornamental mounts, escutcheons, rosettes and swags for furniture. A designer could draw on the Louis XVI and Empire vocabulary of acanthus scrolls, laurel garlands and ring pulls for period ornament.
