Adrien Delorme

French cabinetmaker From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adrien Faizelot-Delorme (master in 1748 after 1783) was a well-known[1] cabinetmaker (ébéniste) working in Paris, the most prominent in a family of ébénistes.[2]

Becoming master 22 June 1748, he set up in the rue du Temple,[3] a centrally located site where fashionable clients could find him, for he worked as a dealer in furniture as well as running his own workshop; as dealer, his stamp is often found on pieces made by other ébénistes.[4] His own furniture featured fine marquetry and lacquered furniture.

In 1783 Delorme sold his remaining stock at public auction and retired from business.[5]
