He was born in Luxemburg in 1811 to French parents. Describing himself as `artiste en mosaique et marqueterie`, he was to become famous for his complicated and ambitious designs and was elected as a member of `L`Academie de l`Industrie`. Establishing his business in Paris at la rue de l`Entrepôt in 1839 he remained in business until his death in 1878. During his lifetime he supplied furniture to Louis-Philippe in 1844 and also to the King of Holland. Some of the finest examples of his work are included in the collection of the Musee d`Orsay in Paris. He also worked in conjunction with Andre Lemoine who had a Royal Warrant from Napoleon III. Cremer participated in all of the major exhibitions of the period receiving `la medaille d`honeur` in 1839, and a `medaille de bronze` in 1844. He went on to even greater success being awarded `une medaille d`argent` at the 1849 Exposition, `une medaille de seconde classe` at London in 1852 and `la medaille de honeur` at the 1855 Exposition Universelle

*Cemmick (David, 1955-). A fine modern foundry bronze sculpture of a dodo by Cemmick & Wylder Fine Art, limited edition number. 1 of 12, finely detailed throughout, 58cm (22.75 in) high, signed and numbered, mounted on a substantial rectangular slate base, 61cm (24in) overall heightThe Dodo (Raphus cucullatus) is now sadly extinct, once a flightless bird indigenous to Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. Little is known about the Dodo but paintings and written accounts appeared from the 17th century onwards, the first account written by Dutch sailors in 1598. It is believed that the readiness of food (fruit) and absence of predators on the island was a contributing factor to it becoming flightless, which ultimately led to its extinction as the bird became preyed upon by hungry sailors and their domesticated animals which had been introduced to the island. The last recorded sighting of the Dodo was in 1662 but fossil remains have enabled scientists to create a pattern of its size and weight, i.e. 3 ft 3 ins tall and 10-18 kg in weight.. (1).
