André Georges Richaume (8 February 1905 in Mirecourt – 31 March 1966 in Paris) was a prominent French bowmaker, from a family of bowmakers. His grandfather was Charles Claude Fetique (1853–1911), who was a violin maker, and who had two bow-making sons, Victor François Fétique (1872–1933) and Jules Fetique (1875–1951), and a daughter Marie Augustine Marthe Fétique (1879–1928 André's mother). André's cousin, Marcel Fétique (1899–1977 son of Victor), became a bowmaker as well. "André Richaume was also a restorer of very great talent, able to preserve the styles of the Masters of the past."

  • André Georges Richaume (8 February 1905 in Mirecourt – 31 March 1966 in Paris) was a prominent French bowmaker, from a family of bowmakers. His grandfather was Charles Claude Fetique (1853–1911), who was a violin maker, and who had two bow-making sons, Victor François Fétique (1872–1933) and Jules Fetique (1875–1951), and a daughter Marie Augustine Marthe Fétique (1879–1928 André's mother). André's cousin, Marcel Fétique (1899–1977 son of Victor), became a bowmaker as well. Richaume apprenticed with Emile Francois Ouchard in Mirecourt, before joining his uncle, Victor Fetique in Paris. He established his own shop in 1923 and worked until 1957. In 1955 Richaume was awarded the distinction of "Meilleur Ouvrier de France" (one of the best craftsmen in France). He supplied fine bows to other Parisian makers under his own brand. His work is very much influenced by Ouchard and his uncle Victor Fetique. David Oistrakh used a Richaume bow in the later part of his life. Oistrakh had remarked that this bow gave him great satisfaction, so much so that when in Paris, he had to go meet Richaume in person. "The bow bought by his son Igor Oistrakh in 1957, had filled David with such enthusiasm that Igor made a gift of it." "André Richaume was also a restorer of very great talent, able to preserve the styles of the Masters of the past." (en)
