Gilt Bronze Jewelry Chest by Tahan of Paris, circa 1900
By Tahan Paris
Located in New York, NY
Our truly extraordinary jewelry chest from Tahan of Paris, circa 1900, features a gilt bronze frame and lid with floral vine openwork revealing green colored glass inserts, and snake form handle decorated with clear and ruby colored faceted glass, raised on acanthus leaf feet. With cushioned, fitted interior, apparently original and marked by the maker, TAHAN A PARIS. 6 by 8 by 5.5 inches. The finest box of its kind from the Belle Epoque period we have ever seen. This prestigious firm's origins started with the cabinet maker, Pierre Lambert Tahan (1780-1844), in Spa, a small town of the Ardennes in Belgium, who left his hometown in 1804 to set up his “boxes and necessaries” factory in the Temple district. His son Jean Pierre Alexandre (1813-1892) was hence born in Paris and helped him as early as 1837, then took over the total direction of the company in 1844, his father ceasing all activity then. Following his father's passing, Jean Pierre Alexandre separated the studio on rue de Quincampoix from the shop in the rue basse du rampart. He developed the production of boxes, but also produced larger furniture items such as “bonheur-du-jour”, desks, and sewing tables. As early as 1845, he also began to advertise in the newspapers, a practice still very little used at the time. “Supplier of the King and Princes”, he won a silver medal at the Exhibition of Industrial Products in 1849 and became known as "the Prince of Small Cabinetmaking." In 1855, he was awarded the title of "Supplier of the Emperor" at the Universal Exhibition where he exhibited an extraordinary sculpted aviary. The Court commissioned indeed a large number of works, including rosewood planters, lounge tables for the Palais des Tuileries, and a cabinet in mahogany and gilt bronze for Napoleon III’s office. His shop migrated to 34 rue de la Paix (1849-1866), then 11 Boulevard des Italiens (1866-1878). In 1861, Tahan was thus designated as "one of those manufacturers who outstrip fashion and set the tone instead of following." (La Chronique des Arts et de la Curiosité). Indeed, he collaborated quickly with Julien-Nicolas Rivart...
