The son of a cobbler Germain Chayé was apprenticed to Claude Dargent at the age of fifteen. Chayé was ranked thirteenth in his guild in 1774 and was subsequently elected an official of the corporation eight years later. Gold boxes and étuis by Chayé can be found in the Louvre, at Waddeson Manor and in the Metropolitan Museum.
