Leopoldo Janesich opened his first shop in Trïest in 1835 with jewelery and silverware for an international clientele. Around 1900, his son opened a shop in Paris, on rue de la Paix. Biaritz, London and Monte Carlo soon followed. Janesisch worked for Cartier and was highly praised for his "Powder Boxes and Cases" in the Art Deco style.
