    Papst
    Originally from Germany, François-Ignace Papst received his master's degree in Paris in 1785. He established himself on Rue de Charonne, then moved his workshops to Rue Saint-Antoine and received numerous commissions from the Garde Meuble de la Couronne for the châteaux of Fontainebleau, Versailles, Compiègne, and Rambouillet.
    For some forty years, he retained the esteem of all successive governments in France. Most of his furniture, chests of drawers, secretaries, console tables, etc., whether in the Louis XVI, Directoire, or Empire styles, were carefully and rigorously designed, very soberly adorned with moldings or simply framed with fine bronze beaded rods. He used rosewood and violet wood, but the vast majority of his works were made of mahogany.
    He participated in the exhibitions of 1806 and 1809 and in 1811 he received a medal from the Society for the Encouragement of National Industry. He ceased his activities in 1822, ruined and infirm, and ended his life in a hospice.
