Established by Théodore Millet in 1853, Maison Millet operated until 1902 from premises at 11, rue Jacques-Coeur, Paris, before relocating to 23, boulevard Beaumarchais. Specialising in 'meubles et bronzes d'art, genre ancien et moderne', with a particular accent on Louis XV and XVI antecedents, the firm received accolades at many of the late 19th century exhibitions, including a médaille d'or at the 1889 Paris Exposition universelle, and a Grand Prix at the 1900 exhibition.
