Cabinetmakers for four generations the Pomier family has passed on their trade expertise from father to son and has over the years specialized in marquetry and the restoration of antique furniture


The great grand father who started as a carpenter cabinetmaker in Bourg St Andéol (in Ardèche) fathered Jean Pomier who became a Compagnon of the Tour de France,  specializing in church furniture. 
In 1932 André Pomier was born and after his apprenticeship specialized in the high restoration of antique furniture by partnering with Mr. Meyer who was at the time a well established training master in Lyon.
