Jacques Dubois was one of the greatest Parisian cabinet-makers during the reign of Louis XV. For a long time a free worker in the faubourg Saint Antoine, he obtained his master's degree in 1742 at the age of 49 and pursued a brilliant career for more than 20 years in the rue de Charenton. As the King's cabinetmaker, he worked for the nobility. His workshop was taken over by his son René in 1763, who continued his father's work for around twenty years, also enjoying a glowing reputation.
