Louis XV style Side table by Baur, Gass & Schamber 75 Faubourg Saint Antoine Paris Circa 1880.

Description

Not much is found on these Furniture makers in Paris. We do know that they produced some of the finest pieces of the time, but not so many have come forth on the markets available for sale. A pair of side tables in auction were seen in Dallas Texas Heritage Auction Galleries Decorative Arts Signature Auction Catalog #637, also in another auction at Bonhams London a large books case. Both pieces of furniture hit rather larger amounts in the final bidding. They are listed in the archives in Paris as Baur, Gass & Schamber/ Ebenisterie de luxe/Mosaique et Marqueterie/ 75 Faubourg St. Antoine/Paris/ Reproduction de Meubles Anciens
