Gustave-Frédéric Quignon, born in 1843, works with his father Napoléon Quignon, boulevard Richard-Lenoir. He took over in 1874 and extended the range of manufactures of the house with other seats and furniture, but also sculpture. Like his father, he produced finely carved and gilded furniture in the Louis XV and Louis XVI style, but also some Neo-Renaissance furniture. He becomes a supplier of the Mobilier National. He exhibited at the Universal Exhibition of 1878, where he won a gold medal. He was a member of the jury at the Universal Exhibition of 1889. The same year, he transferred the company to 39 rue de Saint-Sabin, where he worked until the end of the century. He participated in 1891 in the French Exhibition in Moscow alongside H. Dasson and P. Sormani, and in 1893 in the reports on the International Exhibition in Chicago. He won the Grand Prix for all of his shipments to the Universal Exhibition of 1900.
