Biographies

The overview above is drawn from the following published accounts. Read them in the original:

John Dilworth+

PECCATTE, Charles Born 1850 Mirecourt, died 1918 Paris France. Bow maker. Son of François Peccatte, below. Thought to have been apprenticed to A. Lenoble with whom he worked until 1881, although he was also employed by J. B. Vuillaume and F. N. Voirin before returning to Lenoble. Established independently on rue de Valois 1908. Awarded silver medals at Antwerp 1885 and Paris 1885. Fine work, if not so consistent as those of his brother Dominique. Some cheaper grades bear his brand.

Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+

Sohn von F. Peccate; er liess sich 1870 in Paris in der Rue de Valois 8
als Bogenmacher nieder und erhielt in Antwerpen 1885 und in Paris 1889
silberne Medaillen.

Cecie Stainer+

A brother of Dominique, who also made bows, and was for some time working in J. B. Vuillaume’s shop. His work is inferior to that of his brother. He died in Paris about 1856.
