Orders made by Chapus, Paris

À la Gerbe d’Or was a bijouterie shop founded in 1797 at 10 Quai Pelletier. In 1854, it moved to 86 Rue de Rivoli. As of 1880, it was run by the widow Chapus and sold watches, clocks, goldwork, jewelry, and bijouterie, and specialized in wedding bijouterie. In 1896, she participated in the Exposition du théâtre et de la musique in Paris. She won a silver medal at the 1900 Universal Exhibition, and in 1904 partnered with her son. Their workshop was located at 16 Rue Saint-Martin. The company ceased to exist around 1928.​
