Blaise Maucuy, maître in 1758.
These fauteuils, with their strong lines and elegant carving, are related to another fauteuil stamped B. MAUCUY from the Collection of André Carlhian, (see P. Kjellberg, Le Mobilier Français du XVIIIème Siècle, Paris, 1989, p. 556), which sold anonymously at Christie’s, London, 5 December 2013, lot 96. Maucuy (1729-1798) was established in the area of Notre Dame de la Bonne Nouvelle, along with many of his fellow cabinet-makers.
