Flourishing until 1764, Gourdin employed two stamps during his long career. The first, 'I.G.', served until circa 1748 when his son Jean-Baptiste joined his atelier after gaining his maîtrise. Jean used the stamp 'Pere Gourdin' thereafter. This set was once part of the celebrated collection of Madame André Saint (probably née Madelaine Bariquand; 1879-1955) sold in 1935. Her sale comprised many masterpieces of 18th century French furniture such as the fauteuil by Georges Jacob commissioned for Prince Regent’s London residence Carlton House, sold at Christie’s, Paris, 30 September 2003, lot 469; the pair of Régence lacquer armoires sold at Christie’s, 10 July 2014, lot 29; and the Eros bronze figure offered in the present sale (lot 6).
