Early life
Templier was born into a family of jewellers in Paris on 22 April 1891, the son of Paul Templier.[1][2] His grandfather Charles Templier opened a jewellery shop in Paris in 1849, and founded Maison Templier, which "flourished" under Paul Templier.[2]
Templier graduated from the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs.[2]
Career
According to the V&A, Templier "was one of a small group of innovative Art Deco designers producing work in a minimal, geometric style that looked towards Cubism and the imagery of industrial production."[3]
He joined the family business in 1922.[4]
In 1930, he was a founding member of The French Union of Modern Artists.[4] In 1935, he took over the running of Maison Templier from his father, Paul.[4]
Templier retired in 1965.[5] He died on 22 May 1968 in Paris.[3]
Legacy
His work is in the permanent collections of New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, and London's V&A.[1][3]
