He was born and trained in Switzerland but worked in France from about 1830 to 1841 when he settled in London. In 1857, he was described as a  master watch engraver but the surviving material, although including watch dials, demonstrates wider involvement in the silversmithing trade from electrotyped dressing table boxes to engraved panels for carriage clocks. It is very rare to find so much documented material from one of the smaller suppliers to the trade. His work would have been largely anonymous and sold under the name of larger silversmiths or retailers of the Victorian period.","physicalDescription":"Oblong electrotype panel of engraved and silvered copper for a carriage clock. The design of  the central cartouche is of hunting trophies hanging from a ribbon bow; a hare, a game bird, a horn, pistol and knife surrounded by a floral wreath. Outside the cartouche, scrolls, stylised flowers and leaves form a wide border. The reverse is covered in a layer of wax.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Faucherre, Jean Julien","id":"A25798"},"association":{"text":"maker","id":"x40240"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"copper","id":"AAT11020"},{"text":"silver","id":"AAT11029"}],"techniques":[{"text":"electrotyping","id":"AAT234668"},{"text":"electroplating","id":"AAT54000"},{"text":"engraving (incising)","id":"AAT53829"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Electrotype, engraved and silvered copper","categories":[{"text":"Metalwork","id":"THES48920"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"MET","id":"THES48599"},"images":["2010EM3301"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"002","id":"THES410212"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"panel","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"London","id":"x28980"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1850-1880","earliest":"1850-01-01","latest":"1880-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Given by Miss Jeanne Faucherre","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Length","value":"14.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"8.9","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""},{"dimension":"Depth","value":".3","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[{"content":"'EC silvered'","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":"Inscribed on wax."}],"objectHistory":"This is one of a group of objects from the workshop of Jean Julien Faucherre (M. 4 -24,-2009 )","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"silvered copper, electrotype, London, Jean Julien Faucherre, 1850-1880; made for a clock","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[{"text":"cartouche","id":"AAT10256"},{"text":"trophies","id":"x38269"},{"text":"bow (ribbon)","id":"x30687"},{"text":"hare","id":"x30063"},{"text":"bird","id":"x35043"},{"text":"horn","id":"AAT11826"},{"text":"pistol","id":"AAT37160"},{"text":"knife","id":"x31542"},{"text":"wreath","id":"x43129"},{"text":"scroll-work","id":"AAT10205"},{"text":"flowers","id":"x35571"},{"text":"leaves","id":"x34654"}],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["M.4-2009"],"accessionNumberNum":"4","accessionNumberPrefix":"M","accessionYear":2009,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2025-05-20","recordCreationDate":"2009-04-21","availableToBook":true}}
