CONTAL, F. Worked circa. 1800-1830 Mirecourt France. Decent quality work in the usual Mirecourt style. Flat model. Unprepossessing yellow varnish. Cellos have a good reputation. Branded: ‘F. Contal / A Mirecourt’ or ‘F. Contal à Mirecourt’
Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Er arbeitete sauber und sorgfältig; besonders seine Violoncelli erfreuen sich
einer gewissen Werthschätzung.
