He started out as a furniture maker on his own and later, with his son-in-law, founded Casa Esteva, Hoyos i Cia, of which he was the manager.
His production ranged from large decorative installations to tiny details, such as medallions, frames, figures and marquetry work, combining Japanese and English elements according to the demands of his customers. One of the decorations that came out of his workshop was that of Casa Pérez Samanillo (1910; Balmes, 169 bis) by the architect J.J. Hervàs, currently home to the Círculo Ecuestre (Equestrian Circle).
