Biography of Eugene Cuniot-hury - John Dilworth
CUNIOT, Eugène Born 1861, died 1910 Mirecourt France. Son and pupil of Pierre Cuniot, below. Succeeded to the business in 1884, and managed it well, employing around ten craftsmen. Each worked in different styles and bows carrying the Cuniot brand are very inconsistent. Eugène himself was a loyal exponent of the Bazin style. His chief assistant was F. Ouchard, whose hand is readily distinguishable. Many bows supplied without brands; others branded: ‘CUNIOT-HURI’ or ‘C.H.’ [Millant/Raffin]
