專家說明


The firm Charpentier & Cie was first founded in 1830 and was recorded at 8, Rue Charlot, Paris in 1860, prior to changing their name to Lemerle-Charpentier & Cie circa 1870, which they retained until 1890. Known for their high quality of craftsmanship, the firm produced bronze sculptures, garnitures, vases, torchères, and clocks, such as the present lot, which they exhibited at international exhibitions throughout the nineteenth century.
