John Dilworth+

PACHERELE, Michel Worked circa. 1767-1789 Mirecourt France. Son of Jacob Pacherele, above. Although Paris is given on one label, below, cited by Vidal, he is recorded as living continuously in Mirecourt throughout his period of activity. Instruments in the style of Guersan, high arched, clear yellow-orange varnish. Name branded on back button. Manuscript label: Michel Pacherele, luthier / rue d’Argenteuil, à Paris, 1779

Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+

Er stammte wahrscheinlich aus Mirecourt und war wohl ein Schüler
Guersan’s, an dessen Arbeit seine Geigen erinnern, sie zeichnen sich jedoch in
keiner Weise aus. Sie sind handwerksmässig gemacht, nicht allzuhoch gewölbt
und haben gelben Lack. Ausser seinem Zettel verwendet er auf der Aussenseite des Bodens noch einen Brandstempel mit seinem Namen.

Cecie Stainer+

A maker in Paris in 1779. He followed the pattern of Guersan. His instruments were fairly well made, slightly arched, with yellow varnish. His name is branded on the top of the back, and he used a MS. label: ” Michel Pacherele, luthier rue d’Argenteuil a Paris, 1779.”
