Étienne Pajeot

– Millant Raffin[1] "His bows are considered rare and exceptional" – Gennady Filimonov "The surname appears in several spellings in documents relating to the family.

[2] - SIDNEY BOWDEN "Not surprisingly, his style of work strongly influenced his contemporaries, and his ideas can be glimpsed in the later works of Nicolas Harmand, Dominique GrandAdam and his son Jean, Charles Guinot, Joseph Gaudé, Georges Ury, and Nicolas Mauchard, this last almost certainly a pupil or employee for many years."
