The realization of this carved wooden fireplace is attributed to the Maison des Bambous de Perret et Vibert. The shelf is carved in the shape of a parchment leaf. The entablature and jambs of the mantel are adorned with mother of pearl inlays. The opening of the arched hearth is overhung in its center by a threatening dragon carved in bas-relief.

The Maison des Bambous by Perret and Vibert was founded in 1872 at number 33 rue du Quatre Septembre in Paris. Specializing in small furniture and bamboo and wicker seats, they quickly turned to the manufacture of wooden furniture carved in the Chinese and Japanese style. Around 1910, they opened a branch at 170 Boulevard Haussmann in Paris, where they remain until 1994, the year that they closed the Maison des Bambous.
