Silversmith and jeweler, Quercia executes jewels, mainly in silver but also in gold, for many prestigious jewelers including Vever. Among the plaques and medals exhibited at the Société des Artistes Français in 1900, a Madonna and Child
by Ch. Pillet and a medal by Théodore-Rivière are reported as belonging to M. Quercia elder, most probably Janvier Quercia. Hence we assume that he edited works of these two artists.Quercia specialized in the creation of belt buckles, canes and umbrella handles, chains, pendants and brooches, finely
chased and incorporating enamels. He also distinguished himself by designing religious silverware
