A late 19th century gilt brass mounted ivory and marquetry inlaid circular wall plaque by Maison Giroux, the inlaid decoration by Ferdinand Duvinagecirca 1875, the central dished panel decorated with a Japanese pheasant pecking at a grasshopper beside flowering and fruiting foliage, the ivory inlay with: FD Bte monogram, the lower rim with engraved retailers mark: Maison ALPH. GIROUX Paris, 40cm diameterFootnotes:Ferdinand Duvinage (French, 1813-1876) was a designer and director of the Parisian luxury goods store Maison Alphonse Giroux and developed a special pictorial marquetry technique combining ivory, engraved brass and various woods designed called 'une mosaïque combiné avec cloisonnement métallique' which was patented by Duvinage's widow in 1877 and used in the manufacture of all manner of decorative objets d'art including trays, tazze, jardinières and table tops. The present lot is similar to the majority of these pieces in being executed in the then highly fashionable 'Japonisme' style depicting exotic birds, bamboo and prunus borrowed from eastern sources including Canton porcelain and Meiji metalwork.These fine and highly prized ornamental objects were shown at the 1878 Exposition Universelle in Paris and are almost always marked and etched FD and Bté (short for 'breveté' or patent) signifying that they were created between 1877, when the patent was granted, and 1882 when Madame Duvinage ceded her directorship of the firm.
