Andr\u00e9-Antoine Lardin (1724 \u2013 August 10, 1790) obtained his master craftsman's certificate on July 1, 1750, and established himself on the rue de Charenton under the sign "Au Bois de Boulogne." He worked there until 1770, when he moved to the rue Saint-Nicolas. His output was considerable. His furniture, in all styles (Louis XIV, Regency, Louis XV, Transition, Louis XVI), is exquisitely crafted, with classical forms and decoration. Besides secretaries, desks, tables, and chiffoniers, he produced an impressive number of commodes, adorned with exceptionally high-quality rosewood or violet wood veneer and inlaid with leaves or butterfly wings within a dark rosewood frame. Lardin's distinctive feature was his stamp, boldly and prominently applied in large letters to several places on the same piece of furniture. His two sons, Andr\u00e9-Antoine II and Louis Fran\u00e7ois, collaborated with him, and it was Louis Fran\u00e7ois who succeeded him on rue Saint Nicolas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
