Marie Jeanne Rosalie Désarnaud (1775 -1842) opened her store around 1808 in the galleries of the Palais-Royal garden with her brother Philippe Auguste Charpentier (1781-1815), a renowned engraver of semi-precious stones and crystal.
The 1880s, Japonism
After Japan's participation in the Universal Exhibition of 1867 and the discovery of its art so different from traditional European criteria, a real craze manifested itself. European artistic production then followed this fashion and many artists and cabinetmakers specialized in Japanese creations.
