專家說明


The Maison Millet, established by Blaise Millet in 1857, was first located at 11, rue Jacques-Coeur, Paris, then moved to 23, Boulevard Beaumarchais in 1902. Specialising in ‘meubles et bronzes d'art, genre ancien et moderne’, mainly copies of French 18th century models, Maison Millet was awarded many medals such as the 1889 Exposition Universelle Gold Medal, a Grand prix in 1900 and three Diplômes d'Honneur. In 1902, Millet was authorised by the curator of the Palais de Versailles to replicate Queen Marie-Antoinette's celebrated 'Grand cabinet bijoux'. An auction of their stock was held in 1906 and the firm eventually ceased trading in 1918.
