Default Seeking information about carved furniture

Please find attached pictures of the suite, The Story I received,-- it was
brought to Toronto Canada in the fifties as a model by the son of the
carver from Antwerp -- The carver died while the son was in Canada -- he
sold the suite to an employee of Eaton's -- I purchased it of him -- he told
me there is only two in existence and the Shah of Iran had the other -- It's
called the Feast, consists of an 8 ft side board, china cabinet both have
removable carvings at the side , carved doors with feast scenes -- Table
with carved side legs and six
carved chairs -- any information on who was the Carver etc would be
appreciated - Jim Thanks beforehand.
