Born into a family of chairmakers and furniture carvers, Nicolas-Quinibert Foliot distinguished himself as a skilled menuisier running a prosperous workshop for forty years in Paris in the 1700s. For much of his career, he worked for the French court, sending furniture to the palaces of Versailles, Compiègne, and Fontainebleau. This earned him the title of menuisier du Garde-Meuble du Roi (Furniture-Maker to the King's Household).
