Founded in 1690 by Jean-Baptiste Gaspard-Odiot, it was his grandson, Jean-Baptiste-Claude Odiot, who enabled the family business to achieve the prestige we now associate with it.
Having become one of the leading goldsmiths during the Empire, maintaining its prestige through the Restoration and continuing to grow throughout the 19th century, the Odiot firm adopted the name Odiot, Prévost & Cie between 1894 and 1906, a company managed by Emile Prévost, Paul Edouard Récipon and Gustave Odiot.
It adopted a new hallmark, as can be seen on our piece, reflecting the continuity of the neoclassical designs that brought fame to this dynasty of goldsmiths at the dawn of a new era.
