Weisweiler is said to have been born at Neuwied-am-Rhein and to have received his early training in David Roentgen's workshop.[3] He was in Paris before 1777, when he married Barbe Conte,[4] and was received maître 26 March 1778. Thus all pieces bearing his stamp post-date that event. Weisweiler worked notably for the marchands-merciers, who alone could supply him with the Japanese lacquer panels that, combined with ebony and refined gilt-bronze, characterise some of his finest work. Through Dominique Daguerre he supplied the writing table of steel, lacquer and ebony and gilt-bronze for Marie Antoinette at the château de Saint-Cloud in 1784.[5] Through Daguerre again he provided furniture for the Prince Regent (later George IV) at Carlton House, London. Weisweiler specialised in small refined pieces, with fine lines, delicate legs with light interlaced stretchers, and gilt-bronze low-relief plaques and mounts, some provided to him by Pierre Gouthière through Daguerre,
