The Maison Alphonse Giroux—founded in 1799 and celebrated for its luxurious objets d’art—was taken over in 1867 by Duvinage and Harinkouck. From 1870 until his death, Ferdinand Duvinage directed the firm, gaining renown for its innovative Japonisme-inspired creations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe distinctive marquetry technique seen here, patented in 1877, was likely first exhibited at the Paris Exposition Universelle of 1878. Duvinage had earlier been awarded a silver medal at the Exposition Universelle of 1867, affirming his reputation as one of the foremost artisans of his era.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProvenance:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCollection of Gianni Versace\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSotheby’s, New York, 23 May 2005, sale N08144\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"A.B.
