Cecie Stainer+

Worked in Paris beginning of 19th century His instruments are on a large pattern, with yellow varnish, the wood of good quality, and the work carefully finished. Instead of using a label, he generally branded his instruments with his name, “Augustin Claudot.”

Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+

Bruder von Charles II. Claudot. Er soll in seiner Jugend auch in Paris gearbeitet haben. Sein Modell von breitem Patron ist nicht schlecht; weniger lässt sich dies von seinem (gelben oder orangefarbigen) Lack sagen; dagegen verwendete er meist gutes Holz. Statt des Zettels gebrauchte er eine Brandmarke mit seinem Namen ohne Ortsangabe. Eine Geige von ihm war in der Sammlung Snoeck.
