Charles Peccatte learned within the family tradition and worked in Paris during the later nineteenth century. His bows often preserve the strength and broad geometry associated with the Peccatte name while reflecting the more polished finish expected by the modern trade.
Seen within the wider history of french school bow making, the surviving work associated with Charles Peccatte is best understood through materials, construction, stylistic detail and comparison with authenticated examples. A brand alone is never conclusive.
