Denis Genty, received a master's degree in 1754 and settled in the rue du Faubourg St Antoine. After his master's degree, he quickly took over the cabinetmaking furniture trade at 9 rue de l'Echelle St Honoré "à la descente des Tuileries". He went bankrupt in 1762 due to disproportionate expenses, and his business was taken over by Louis Moreau under the sign "à la petite boule blanche".
