專家說明
The Maison Alphonse Giroux was established in 1799 by François-Simon-Alphonse Giroux at 7 rue du Coq-Saint-Honoré, in Paris. In 1838, the expanded business operated under the name of Giroux & Cie., frequently winning medals at the Exposition des produits de l'industrie Française. Between 1855 and 1857, Emperor Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie commissioned a large amount of pieces from Giroux & Cie, among which a small desk, candelabra, mantel clocks, vases as well as chiffoniers. In 1857, the business relocated to 43 boulevard des Capucines, where it remained until 1867, when the firm was taken over by Duvinage and Harinckouk.
