André Chardon
Bow maker
(1897 – 1963)
André Chardon (1897–1963) joined his own father Georges Chardon's workshop as an apprentice from 1912. He learned much of his sense of detail and style from a close working relationship with a colleague, and by 1937 was established enough to exhibit at the Paris Exposition alongside Émile A. Ouchard and André Richaume. Hahn Rapoport, a Russian-trained maker, is recorded among his own pupils.
