Au Petit Dunkerque was one of the premier Paris retailers and served as bijoutier du roi. With marchand-mercier Charles-Reymond Grancher as its proprietor, Dunkerque commissioned gold boxes from leading gold box makers such as Le Bastier, Bouillerot and Blerzy. The gold boxes retailed by Dunkerque were always of the latest fashion and of the highest quality and were greatly sought after by the French nobility.
