The maitrise date for Etienne Meunier is not recorded.
The first and most notable of a family of menuisiers, Etienne Meunier had his atelier on the rue de Cléry. He is particularly noted for his preference for pittoresque floral motifs: 'Il n'utilise sûre que les fleurettes parcimonieusement disposés pour la décoration de ses sièges, d'une ligne sévère, mais toujours harmonieuse' (J. Nicolay, L'art et la manière des maîtres ébénistes Français au XVIIIe siècle, Paris, 1956, pp. 313-314).
