Pierre-Philippe Thomire (1751-1843) studied in the late 18th Century under the sculptors Pajou and Houdon and the bronzier Gouthière. By the early 19th Century he had become famous for his gilt-bronze furniture mounts, clocks, candelabra and other table decorations. Many special commissions were placed with him and clients visited his workshop to choose from various different elements to form decorative candelabra or indeed other bronzes d'ameublement.
