Antoine Crosnier
Born on January 13, 1732 in Paris.
Crosnier opened a workshop on rue Saint-Honoré in 1759, at that time he was one of the most important watchmakers of the second half of the 18th century. For the cases and bronzes of his masterpieces, he engaged the best artists and craftspeople of the time, including the renowned Bronziers Robert and Jean -Baptiste Osmond, Edmé Roy, René François Morlay, Nicolas Bonnet and François Vion. He used cases of the cabinetmakers Jean-Pierre Latz, Balthazar Lieutaud and François Goyer and employed the gilders Honoré Noël and the tapistier Nicolas Leclerc. In the 18th century, some of his works were mentioned in the collections of the Maréchal de Choiseul-Stainville, the Duke of Deux-Ponts, the Marquis de Sainte-Amaranthe and Prince Belosselsky-Belozersky. Today, his watches are preserved in many prestigious private and public collections.
