Specialising in the production of 18th century style furniture of the finest quality, Gervais-Maximillien-Eugène Durand (b. 1839) worked from a number of workshop locations in Paris during the last quarter of the 19th century. With his son Frédéric-Louis joining him in around 1890, the firm altered its name to Durand et Fils. Another example of this model of bureau à cylindre, by Léon Kahn as opposed to Durand, sold Christie's, New York, 24 November 2009, lot 220 ($32,500).
