• Source: Louis Thomassin (archetier)

    • Louis Thomassin (1856–1905) was a French bow maker, or Archetier.
    He learned his craft in Mirecourt where he worked for the Bazin Family. In 1872 he went to Paris to work for François Nicolas Voirin and carried on Voirin's shop after his death.
    He established his own workshop in Paris in 1891.
    His son and pupil, Claude, also made fine bows in Paris, based on Voirin's model.
    Louis Thomassin's branded bows are of beautiful and of consistent quality. Unfortunately his production was not extensive.
