Period of Louis XVI 18th century
Martin Carlin
Freiburg im Breisgau 1730 — Paris 06.03.1785
Martin Carlin was a Parisian ébéniste (cabinet-maker). Renowned for his "graceful furniture mounted with Sèvres porcelain", Carlin fed into the luxury market of eighteenth-century decorative arts, where porcelain-fitted furniture was considered among "the most exquisite furnishings" within the transitional and neoclassical styles. Carlin's furniture was popular amongst the main great dealers, including Poirier, Daguerre, and Darnault, who sold his furniture to Marie Antoinette and many amongst the social elite class.
