This prolific Belgian maker spent all of his long working life in Brussels and produced a wide variety of of furniture in a simple neoclassical style typical of the period. He supplied furniture to the Château de Laeken and early in the nineteenth century had his stamp registered to prevent his work from being confused with the parisian maker Claude Chapuis (See D. Ledoux-Lebard, Le Mobilier Français du XIXé Siécle, 1989, pp. 118-121)
