<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 73366, member: 33"]In a few auction listings online, it says that the address was 86, rue du Faubourg-Saint-Antoine. The full name of the owner was Eugène Dienst. If you click the "Lot Notes" tab on this Christie's lot (<a href="http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/lot/a-regence-style-ormolu-mounted-by-eugene-dienst-paris-4484188-details.aspx?intObjectID=4484188#top" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/lot/a-regence-style-ormolu-mounted-by-eugene-dienst-paris-4484188-details.aspx?intObjectID=4484188#top" rel="nofollow">http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/lot/a-regence-style-ormolu-mounted-by-eugene-dienst-paris-4484188-details.aspx?intObjectID=4484188#top</a>), it says "Taking over his father's workshop at 86, rue du Faubourg-Saint-Antoine in 1871, Eugène Dienst remained there until the end of the century.

He was awarded a gold medal for his exhibits at the Paris 1889 [I]Exposition Universelle[/I]." -- Although it doesn't give the last date, it does say "end of the century" as the end of Dienst's presence at that address. Your table looks less ornate than most of their items I've found online... just an observation.[/QUOTE]
