Jules F\u00e9tique<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bow maker<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(maker: 1875 \u2013 1951)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jules F\u00e9tique was born in Mirecourt three years after his brother of Victor, and followed in his footsteps by apprenticing with \u00c9mile Miquel and Charles Nicolas Bazin. In 1902 he moved to Paris to join the workshop of Eug\u00e8ne Sartory, also collaborating with his brother on occasion. F\u00e9tique used a model very similar to Sartory’s, although some of his later bows are more of the Peccatte school, featuring square heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beginning in 1917 F\u00e9tique worked for the firm of Caressa & Fran\u00e7ais while continuing to collaborate with Sartory until 1934, when he set up his own firm with violin maker Andr\u00e9 Dugad. He produced a great number of consistently high-quality bows, many of which bear the Caressa & Fran\u00e7ais or \u00c9mile Fran\u00e7ais brands. Those he made for himself are stamped “J. F\u00e9tique,” “J. F\u00e9tique \u00e0 Paris,” or “Jules F\u00e9tique Paris.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
