Jean-Marc Chappuis

Died in 1875.
Jean-Marc Chappuis was an artist whose principal activity lay in enamel painting. His work is distinguished by delicate creations on jewellery as well as on watch dials, demonstrating refined craftsmanship. The details of his career and influences remain partly obscure, but his commitment to this art form attests to a technical mastery appreciated in his time.
Although the pieces produced by Chappuis are poorly documented, they reflect a style that deserves to be rediscovered in the context of nineteenth-century arts and crafts.
