Maison Jansen was founded in Paris in 1880 by Dutch-born decorator Jean-Henri Jansen, then twenty-five, and quickly gained recognition, exhibiting at the 1889 Paris Universal Exposition. The firm opened a shop at 9 Rue Royale in 1890, and by 1900 was commissioning enough custom furniture to establish its own in-house atelier, which at its peak employed around 700 artisans.

Jansen combined traditional French 18th-century styles with contemporary influences including the Vienna Secession, Modernism and Art Deco, and became the first design firm to operate on a genuinely global scale. The house was led for decades by tastemaker-directors Stéphane Boudin (1888–1967) and Pierre Delbée (1900–1974), and closed in 1989.
