Jean Avisse, maître in 1745.
Avisse (1723-1796) whose workshop was established on the Rue Cléry, first supplied tapestry makers and marchands-merciers before he could exclusively work for private clients such as the Marquise de Chabannes, the Comtesse de Fontenay and the Chevalier de Lamotte. He worked with highly skilled woodcarvers such as Jean-François Baillard, Pierre Rousseau and Claude Vinache, producing some of the finest Rococo seat furniture of the eighteenth century.
