Talk:Charles Cressent

Untitled
1911 babble. It will be easier to start again. Louis Courajod, Le livre-journal de Lazare Duvaux, Paris, 1873:lvii notes that Cressent in his retirement was making purchases from the marchand-mercier Lazare Duvaux in the decade 1748-58. Cressent's 1757 sale calls him ébéniste des palais de feu S.A.R. Mgrle duc d'Orléans. He was the Regent's house cabinetmaker. The best article on Cressent is limited to his cartel clocks: Theodore Dell, "The Gilt-Bronze Cartel Clocks of Charles Cressent" Burlington Magazine 1967.--Wetman (talk) 07:13, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
