Gabriel Viardot is largely remembered for his particular version of Asian style furniture, and was advertised as créateur des meubles dans le genre chinois et japonais. He exhibited widely, including at Crystal Palace in 1851, and was both participant and jury member for the 1867, 1878 and 1889 International Exhibitions in Paris. His major success was at the 1889 Parise Exposition Universelle where the firm was awarded a gold medal. The cabinet is typical of pieces by Gabriel Viardot. Beginning his career as a wood carver, he took over the family firm from his father Charles in 1861. By 1870 he specialized in exotic furniture influenced by Chinese and Vietnamese styles, Vietnam being one of France's most important colonies. In 1860, he was located at 5, rue du Grand-Chantier, later moving to several locations including 36, rue Rambuteau where objects d'art et de fantaisie were sold and finally to 36, rue Amelot where he stayed until the end of the century. Around 1885 he employed about 100 men.
