Johann Georg Renner (goldsmith)
Johann Georg Renner (* before 1692; † before June 12, 1731 ) was a German gold and silver worker.
Life
At the end of the 17th century, Johann Georg Renner was a citizen and gold worker of the Calenberger Neustadt in front of Hanover in the Electorate of Braunschweig-Lüneburg before he married the daughter of the royal mouth cook Meyer who worked in Copenhagen on October 11, 1692. Soon after, on October 22, 1693 and September 16, 1697, two daughters were baptized .
Around the beginning of the personal union between Great Britain and Hanover , Renner received a fee of 2 Reichstalers in 1714/15 for the “examination of the gold- plated and silver-plated ornaments on the coffin for the widow of the Electress ” .
In 1726 Johann Wilhelm Schaar produced in Langestrasse for the silver worker Renner or his son Johann Bernhard Renner, who, like Renner's son Otto Georg Renner, had been trained as a goldsmith.
