Pierre Gouthière (1732-1813), son of a saddler, became the most famous Parisian bronzier and gilder of the late 1700s, receiving commissions from some of the greatest connoisseurs of his time. Like many successful apprentices, he married the widow of his first employer and took over his establishment. The success is fast and in November of 1767, he receives the title of “Dooreur du roi” from Louis XV. Gouthière also provided works to the Comte d'Artois, the Marquis de Marigny and the haberdasher Dominique Daguerre, among others. Gouthière was a master of chasing and invented a new type of gilding that left a matte finish. He combined polished finishes with matte finishes to create varying effects on the surfaces of his bronzes. He makes many types of objects, including furniture mounts, ornaments for fireplaces and carriages, mounts for porcelain or marble vases.
