Catalogue Note
Léonard Boudin, ébéniste reçu maître en 1761
Il est très probable que Boudin, ébéniste et marchand, sous-traita le décor extrêmement raffiné de ce bonheur-du-jour à un des virtuoses de la marqueterie de fleurs, tels que Christophe Wolff ou Brice Péridiez, connus pour avoir régulièrement collaboré avec Boudin.
