The Maison Sormani would soon become a very successful company, highly popular with Parisian high society, as well as with the Imperial Family. Having decorated her palaces in the "Ancien Régime" styles, Empress Eugénie acquired many of the superb SORMANI creations.The company exhibited its works in all the major International as well as National Exhibitions, such as that of Industrial Products in 1849 or the major Parisian Universal Exhibitions of 1855 and 1867, in which it was honoured by the judges, having been awarded the highest prizes. In 1867 Sormani moved its premises to rue Charlot, a detail that allows dating this chest to between 1854 and 1867.
