About André-Charles Boulle:
André-Charles Boulle (1642–1732) was a celebrated French artist and woodcarver, widely regarded as the most gifted cabinetmaker of his age. Serving in the workshops of King Louis XIV, he perfected the intricate marquetry technique that now bears his name — Boulle inlay — used to adorn fine furniture and clock cases throughout Europe.
