Veuve Perrin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Claude Perrin, born in Nevers on 20 April 1696, settled in Marseille in 1733 where he died on 25 March 1748.
Pierette Candelot, widow of Claude Perrin, took over the factory after her husband's death. It became known as Veuve Perrin.[1] She entered into a partnership agreement with Honoré Savy, who was a member of the Academy of Painting and Sculpture in Marseille. This cooperation lasted from 1760 to 1770, but was less active after 1764, where Savy founded his own company.[2] In 1774 the widow Perrin formed a second association with his son and Antoine Abellard, grandson of Antoine Clérissy. This continued to operate until her death in 1794. Her son Joseph and daughter Anne took over until the final closure in 1803.
