In 1785, he was appointed fournisseur du Garde-Meuble de la Couronne alongside Jean-Baptiste Boulard, and he gradually supplanted the latter to become amongst the most celebrated menuisiers of the Louis XVI period. Royal patronage dominated the vast majority of his mature career, and he was responsible for supplying seat-furniture to the King and Queen at Saint-Cloud, Versailles, Compiègne, Fontainebleau etc.
