Biographie
Of unknown origin, Gribelin was the founder of an important dynasty of clock-makers and engravers who worked in Blois, Paris and London. Himself a clock-maker he also probably made some sun-dials since in the inventory of his goods taken after his death in 1632 there is an entry for a 'moulle à cadrans' valued at 30 sols. Exactly such a mould carrying hius signature is preserved in the Przypkowski Collection, Jendreuf, Poland.1
