François Linke, originally born in Bohemia, came to Paris in 1875 as part of his apprenticeship and travelling. There he founded his furniture manufactory in 1881, with which he quickly became very successful and was one of the leading ebenists of his time. In 1900, he exhibited at the Paris World Exhibition for the first time and won a gold medal with a very unusual piece of furniture in the Louis XV style. His furniture is characterised by its exquisite craftsmanship, which is second to none.
