專家說明

Jean Popsel, maître in 1755, was a German émigré ébéniste working in Paris. He opened his first workshop at rue Traversiére then moved to rue Saint-Nicolas at the end of the reign of Louis XV where he remained until just prior to the revolution.
A closely related commode by Popsel was sold, Christie's New York, 18 October 2002, lot 653.
