The design for this table with its 'bamboo' double colonettes is undoubtedly the celebrated table given by Madame du Barry (1743-1793) to the duc de Brissac. Delivered by Lignereux and Daguerre, it exemplified the height of taste at the end of the eighteenth century, which once again gained popularity at the end of the nineteenth century.
