About the Item

A French 19th Century barometer and thermometer by Eugène Hazart The shaped foliate case mounted on a wood backboard, the upper part with enameled centi-grade scale thermometer, above a circular barometric polychromed porcelain enameled dial The side of the ormolu signed Eug.Hazart Paris Louis XVI Style Circa 1895 Provenance Collection Pierre Lécoules When Henry Dasson ceased production in 1894, and at this time held a sale of his models, listed in Catalogues of drawings for art bronzes, style furniture and important decoration with rights of reproduction by Henry Dasson et Cie, manufacturer of art bronzes and cabi-netmaker as a result of cessation of production. The records from this sale show that Paul Sormani, as well as Joseph Emmanuel Zweiner, Maison Millet and, Eugène Hazart and Beurdeley acquired certain drawings, bronzes mold and models by Dasson. That’s why our barometer can also be found with Henry Dasson et Cie signature, both with same high chiseling and gilding quality. Eugène Hazart entered the « Réunion des Fabricants de Bronze » in 1839. Well-known since 1843 in the making of ancient style reproductions, not only with his Gothic and Re-naissance style bronzes but also very at ease in the 18th century style. He was definitely well appreciated because his presence in 1884 in the Pannier brothers’s bronze-casters booklet. The Pannier brothers managed beautifully the so famous house « A l’Escalier de Cristal », which took place at the Palais-Royal in Paris and was selling porcelain and cristal objects as well as furniture. This company drew attention to his work during its participations in the 19th century “Expositions des Produits de l’Industrie”. Henry Dasson (1825-1896) was one of the finest makers of gilt bronze-mounted furniture in the nineteenth century. Unlike other cabinetmakers of this time he started his career as a bronze sculptor, and for this reason one of the characteristics of his work is the great quality of his bronze and more precisely of the chiselling. In 1871, he purchased the flourishing business and remaining stock of Charles-Guillaume Winckelsen, who had established a reputation for furniture of the highest quality. Dasson almost certainly inherited the Craft of ciseleur from Winckelsen. At the 1878 and 1889 Paris Expositions Universelles Dasson exhibited a number of pieces in the Louis XV and XVI styles, as well as pieces of his own modified eighteenth-century design. The exhibits in 1878 included a table entirely in gilt bronze, purchased by Lord Dudley. His copy of the celebrated Bureau du Roi sold at the same exhibition to Lady Ashburton.
