“Interesting example of this Greatest bowmaker, made in the end of his life c. 1865”-Jean-François RAFFIN

\"Some consider his bows second only to those of Tourte. His brother François (1820-1855), was also a fine bow maker who worked in Mirecourt.\" -Gennady Filimonov

It was at the recommendation of Nicolas François VUILLAUME that DominiquePECCATTEleft Mirecourt in 1826 to join Jean-Baptiste VUILLAUME\'s worksop in Paris.DomniquePECCATTEwas first trained as a violin maker, but as J.B. VUILLAUME\'s collaborator, he quickly turned to bow making, probably under the direction of J.P.M. PERSOIT.
Around 1836 DominiquePECCATTEwas working for François LUPOT who he succeeded upon LUPOT\'s deathin 1838, maintaining the workshop at 18, rue d\'Angevillers.
In 1841, after the death of his father, DominiquePECCATTEwas joined by his brother François for a two-year collaboration period. HENRY, according to Millant-Raffin\'s book, surely spent some time in DominquePECCATTE\'s workshop around that same period.
Millant-Raffin\'s also informs us that DominiquePECCATTEreturned to Mirecourt in 1847 where he established his workshop on rue des Vosges before later moving to rue des Cloîtres in 1852. Other authors date his return to Mirecourt around 1843 or 1844.
During the first years following his return, while staying in the family house on rue des Vosges, François and DominiquePECCATTEmaintained their collaboration.
