Lot Essay
La famille Musy, originaire de Massongy, dans le sud-est de la France, ouvre son premier atelier à Turin en 1706 avec Giacomo Musy et son fils Luigi, qui deviennent dès le XVIIIe siècle « Orfèvres et horlogers de la Maison de Savoie ». Cette relation va perdurer tout au long du XIXe siècle et les Musy réalisent des bijoux et des pièces d’orfèvrerie pour toute la famille de Savoie.
