Commentary
Buste très surprenant, inédit au Guéant Prieur, reprenant une légende répertoriée, dont nous n’aurions que le témoignage sur cette refrappe.
Les métiers de la teinture se divisent sous l'ancien régime en trois catégories : les teinturiers de grand et bon teint, les teinturiers de petit teint et ceux de soie, laine et fil. Les premiers, dont il est question ici, travaillent les belles étoffes avec les teintures les plus estimées, comme l'inde et la fleurée. Les seconds usent de teintures médiocres, principalement celle dite "noir de chaudière ou moulée".
Refrappe certaine bien que le jeton soit sans poinçon. Ce type de refrappe a été fait pour collectionneurs et pour pallier à l’impossibilité de trouver certains jetons, rarissimes voire inconnus en frappe originale. Cette refrappe provient de la collection Pierre-Yves Lathoumétie.
A very surprising bust, unpublished at Guéant Prieur, depicting a recorded legend, of which we only have the testimony on this re-strike. The dyeing trades were divided under the old regime into three categories: dyers of grand and good dyes, dyers of petit teint, and those of silk, wool, and thread. The former, who are the subject here, worked beautiful fabrics with the most esteemed dyes, such as inde and fleurée. The latter used mediocre dyes, mainly the so-called \\\"boiler black or molded.\\\" A certain re-strike, although the token is without a hallmark. This type of re-strike was done for collectors and to compensate for the impossibility of finding certain tokens, extremely rare or even unknown in their original strike. This re-strike comes from the Pierre-Yves Lathoumétie collection

Historical background
CORPORATIONS
In Rome, groups of artisans already existed: forming a college placed under the protection of a divinity, with a common house and fund. In medieval Europe, probably from religious brotherhoods, economic groups were formed between merchants called hanse or ghilde.. With the development of trade, craftsmen organized themselves into trade bodies or communities which brought together all those who practiced the same profession: masters, journeymen or apprentices.. To enter the body, you had to "swear" the profession. Alongside, there were free professions that could be practiced by all.. Each corps was headed by a collegial management responsible for enforcing the regulations of the trade, protecting the trade from competition and directing the mutual benefit society.. At the end of the 17th century, the king began to sell the functions of jurors and corporate trustees as hereditary offices, which led to serious financial difficulties at a time when the corporations no longer met the new economic requirements of the development of industry and business concentration. It is also in England that the corporations disappeared spontaneously because of the industrial revolution.. The corporations will be abolished in France in 1791 by the Constituent Assembly.
