Mathurin Lussault

Mathurin Lussault (died 1572) was a French goldsmith based in Paris who supplied the royal family and Mary, Queen of Scots.

[2] An note in an inventory of the jewels of Mary, Queen of Scots, records that Lussault was given a string of 36 pearls in July 1556 to make nine entredeux pieces for a sapphire collar.

Other goldsmiths who worked for the wedding ensemble were; Pierre Vast, Michel Fauré and Claude Héry merchants in Lyon, Jean Joly, Jean Doublet (the Dauphin's goldsmith), and Nicolas Vara, a gilder and engraver.

He was a patron of the sculptor Ponce Jacquiot, who designed a fireplace for his house in the Rue St Germain-l'Auxerrois in Paris.

[6][7] Mathurin Lussault was killed in Paris during the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre along with his wife Françoise Baillet and son Jacques or Laurent and a female servant.
