Biography:

Jean-François Lapie (1720-1797): Cabinetmaker in Paris, received his Master's degree on December 15, 1763.

First cousin of Nicolas Alexandre and Jean Lapie, Jean-François Lapie acquired his master's degree late in life, setting up shop on rue de Charenton before moving to rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, where he lived until he died in 1797.

His stamp can be found on a few pieces of furniture with classical lines. His work is also illustrated by a few marquetry pieces featuring flowering branches. An example of his work is a commode with a rather unusual shape, which was part of Viscount Beuret's furnishings at the Château de Dampierre.

Museum:
