Saoutchik
Founded by cabinet maker Jacques Saoutchik, Saoutchik was a top-class French coachbuilding company founded in 1906. In the 1930s the company became famous for their high quality and often extravagant designs. After Jacques died in 1955, the company passed into the hands of his son Pierre. With the great French luxury car manufacturers all going out of business, the market for the ostentatious Saoutchik designs evaporated and the company ceased trading in 1955.
The company was known for designing flamboyant and expensive automobile bodies for classic brands such as Bugatti, Delahaye, Pegaso, and others.
