Charming Japanese style servant table executed in varnished bamboo and Japan lacquer. Made up of three rectangular rocking trays, tastefully decorated with gold-and-red motifs on a black background, depicting a bird on a branch, an octopus with a male figure and a poem lecture scene. The use of Japanese lacquer panels in furniture ornamentation begins at the end of the 18th century. These lacquer panels usually represent landscapes, birds and still-life scenes, most of the time in very sober compositions. The most well-known cabinet-makers, such as Beneman, BVRB and Weisweiler then made lacquered furniture. That craze for lacquered tables was still vivid during the 19th century, thanks to the taste of winter garden atrium and other greenhouses.

In 1894, the company was listed under the name “Perret et Vibert”, headed by the son of Alfred Perret and Ernest Vibert. The same year, they redesigned their store on rue du Quatre-Septembre, creating ten new show-rooms, showing complete furniture sets of Japanese and Chinese style inspiration. It was not until 1895, that the company was finally named “La Maison des Bambous” and organized then in their shops an “exhibition of country furniture and seats for castles and villas”, which was visited by Empress Eugenie to furnish her villa Cyrnos at Cap Martin. She actually was a regular customer of the “Maison des Bambous” as she bought repeatedly furniture. In October of the same year, the king of Greece...
