Note du spécialiste

Of Belgian origin, Jean-Baptiste Befort (1783-1840) settled in Paris and established his atelier in the faubourg Saint-Honoré in 1817. During the reign of Louis-Philippe he obtained several commissions to supply furniture for the refurbished apartments of the duc d'Orléans in the pavillon de Marsan at the Tuileries.
