About:
The firm of Boin-Taburet was established in 1873 by the silversmith George Boin and his father-in-law, the jewelry manufacturer, Emile Taburet. This maker is credited with the revival in the 1880s of Louis XV-style silver, and and won a Gold Medal at the Paris 1889 Exposition Universelle for its monumental historicist work.
Boin-Taburet created objects in the Art Deco period that demonstrate an inventive mastery of more modern forms, while maintaining the firm's reputation for superlative execution.
As well as producing exceptional silver and metal work, the company retailed small items of furniture and decorative objects of the very highest order.
Emile Taburet and Georges Boin worked together until 1900 when Georges Boin is associated with the goldsmith Henry, under the name "Boin and Henry Goldsmiths". In 1906, at the International Exhibition of Milan, the house appears under the name "Henry Brothers and Co.", 3 rue Pasquier in Paris.
In 1936, the house became "Henry and Son".
