Jacques Antoine Bonebakker (Amsterdam, 16 November 1798 – at that place, 17 March 1868) was a Dutch goldsmith, silversmith and jeweller.

His father partnered up with Diederik Lodewijk Bennewitz to take over a well-known Dutch gold, silver and jewellery shop in 1802, the Peirolet brothers’ business.

As Bonebakker & Zoon also received a number of other special assignments in addition to commissions for the production of silverware, including the golden honorary sword for General David Hendrik baron Chassé, who commanded a Dutch division during the wars against Napoleon, including the Battle of Waterloo in 1815.

Another golden sword was ordered shortly after the Ten Day Campaign in August 1831, this time commissioned by the Prince of Oranje.

[4] The house situated on the corner of the Leidsestraat and the Herengracht was the company’s official residence for fifteen years, until Bonebakker was forced to move to larger premises.

[5] Jacques Antoine Bonebakker had managed the company for forty-four years – either partly or alone – by the time he died in 1868.
