Established in Paris in 1810, the firm of Wassmus Frères was fê ted for high quality furnishings in the 18th century taste produced under the direction of Henri-Léonard. From 1853 the business traded from 146, rue du Faubourg-Saint-Denis supplying furniture to European royal houses and contributing to the Paris Exhibitions of 1855 and 1867.
