专家说明

Jean-Baptiste Claude Sené, maître in 1769.
The son of Claude Sené, Jean-Baptiste Claude Sené was born into a family of menuisiers and established his own workshop in the rue de Cléry in 1770, shortly after receiving his maîtrise. Recognition of his extraordinary skill grew and Sené soon had work from a prestigious group of clients, including the duc d'Orléans. In 1785, Sené was recognized by the Court and appointed fournisseur de la Couronne and subsequently produced works that were almost exclusively for members of the French Royal family, most of which was for Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette. From 1785-91, he supplied a wide variety of furniture for Versailles, Montreuil, Saint-Cloud, Compiègne and Fontainebleau. These works spanned both exceptional pieces of incredible luxury and refinement as well as more everyday furnishings destined for the service apartments. Regardless, each piece shared the same impeccable quality of execution.
