Antoine Chevrié is recorded as having worked in Paris at 11 rue Portefon in 1878 until moving in 1886 to 7 rue Braque. A maker of fine furniture and decorations in the manners of the 18th and early 19th Centuries, he participated in the Expositions of 1878 and 1889 where he was twice awarded a silver medal. Recalling Chevrié's display at the Expostion universelle of 1889, A. Picard's report cites the most interesting pieces of the show to include Chevrié's Directoire style vitrine, his small console and his Lemonwood gueridon. (see Denise Ledoux-Lebard, Les Ébénistes du XIXìeme Siècle, 1984, p. 126.) The offered lot may possibly be the gueridon mentioned in Picard's report.
