Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Sohn von Savino C. und Schüler von G. Beltranni, dessen Nachfolger er
auch 1882 wurde. Er baut hauptsächlich Violinen nach eigenem Modell. Seine
Arbeit erinnert an die Beltranni’s und Cerutti’s. Er weicht jedoch von seinen
Vorbildern in den Umrisslinien und den Stärkeverhaltnissen stellenweise ab.
Sein Lack ist recht gut. Er führt das Ladenschild:
