Specialist note

Jacques Chenevat, maître in 1763.

Established 'A la Croix d'or' on rue de Clery for about ten years, Jacques Chenevat worked principally in the Louis XV style. Amongst his most famous pieces was a large Louis XV fauteuil for the réserves du Garde-Meuble and a bergère from the collection of Paul Dustata (Salverte, Les Ebenistes du XVIIIe Siècle, Paris, 1953, p. 55).
