Specialist note
Charles Topino, maître in 1773.
Established in the rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, Topino specialized in the production of light furniture enriched with marquetry, either in the form of flowers or 'naïf' still-lives inspired by the borders of Chinese screens. As his daybook for the years 1771-79 clearly reveals, Topino had very few private clients and was most often employed as specialist marqueteur by marchands ébénistes such as Héricourt, Dautriche, Migeon, Denizot, Delorme, Tuart, Boudin and Moreau.
