Jean Avisse, maître in 1745.

Related to the Gourdin dynasty of famous menuisiers, Avisse set up his studio at no. 124 rue de Cléry in 1747. He soon established himself amongst the richest clientele through numerous tapissiers and merchand-merciers. Fauteuils à la Reine, often upholstered à chassis, were amongst his finest production, characterized by soft but powerful forms, embellished with floral motifs and vigorously sculpted with rocaille.
