Ébéniste
Ebenist ( ébène of french ebony ') is the first documented in 1657 on a French document from the late 17th century also common in German-speaking job title for a cabinetmaker. He differed from the carpenter (French menuisier ), the simple mainly from local wood, not veneered furniture and wood paneling made .
Task
In contrast to the simple carpenter or joiner of Ebenist processed normally very rare exotic woods that he leimte as veneers on a corpus of calm and less costly wood. The technique of manufacture of veneers and marquetry processing dates back to the Middle Ages. From Italy, the Netherlands and the German-speaking immigrant artisans they made in France at the court of Henry IV and Marie de Medici popular. A decree of King Louis XIV granted the privilege of the cabinetmaker 's guild one, the Corporation of Menuisiers - ébénistes. Many furniture that has been made by members of the Corporation were marked with a stamp (French estampille ). Royal cabinet makers were exempt from this stamp duty.
