By Cecie Stainer

Worked in Paris. At first took up violin making as an amateur but in 1878, having received a very flattering verdict from Marsick on one of his violins, he decided to give his whole time to it. In 1889 he exhibited some of his instruments and was awarded a bronze medal, a violin being specially remarked as of very good quality and of beautifully finished workmanship.
