This pair of encoignures was, by repute, in the collection of the Talleyrand family, whose famed member Charles Maurce de Talleyrand Périgord, prince de Bénévent (1754-1838) served as a diplomat in various capacities in France from the Ancien Régime through the reign of Louis-Philippe. On 26 November 2005, Christie's, Paris held a single-owner sale for Héli de Talleyrand-Périgord, duc de Talleyrand, a descendant of the famed diplomat which included French and Continental furniture, objets d'art and old master pictures.
