About Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume (Paris, 1798–1875)

Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume was a master luthier, dealer, and innovator based in Paris. He produced over 3,000 string instruments, many of which were inspired by the designs of Stradivari and Guarneri, but executed with his own impeccable French precision. Vuillaume’s workshop was a centre of excellence, attracting and training many fine makers. His instruments were used by great violinists of the 19th century and continue to be chosen by leading musicians today.
