Organized by China Arts and Entertainment Group, the exhibition marks the China debut of over 80 objects of craftsmanship and artistry, from the collections of the Mobilier National and the Fondation Napoleon in Paris.

The objects once decorated Napoleon's three foremost palaces: the Tuileries, Saint-Cloud and Meudon. They were burned down in the turmoils in 1870 and 1871.
