Jérôme Thibouville-Lamy History
and Violins Archive Sales Prices:
Bow maker / Violin maker
(fl. 1857 - 1968)
(J.T.L.), was a prominent French luthier
and a company known for producing high-quality violins and other instruments. The Lyra and Violin symbol used on their labels as a recognizable part of their branding.
In 1857 Jérôme Thibouville joined forces with
Charles Buthod and Charles-Claude Husson to form Husson-Buthod-Thibouville. When Jérôme Thibouville married Marguerite Hyacinthe Lamy in 1861, the firm changed its name to the now-famous "Jérôme Thibouville-Lamy (J.T.L.)".
The firm became the largest of the Mirecourt violin making factories - at its peak it produced over 150,000 instruments annually and
employed 1,000 craftsmen.
The firm had different lines of instruments, including student instruments (eg the Médio-Fino and Compagnon ranges) and copies of makers ranging from Stainer and Klotz to Stradivari, as well as instruments named after old violin making-families from Mirecourt and other
French makers.
The J.T.L. firm closed its factories in 1968,
after the Mirecourt instrument making industry went into terminal decline in the
mid 20th century.
