Can anyone tell where in Europe the Kohlert company is based? I'm interested in one of their combo stand for clarinet- oboe and will have family traveling to germany/ france next week- would like to send them on a shopping sidetrip.

The Czech Republic, I believe. (V. Kohlert Sons used to be in the town of Graslitz, and I'm wondering if this is the same town now called Kraslice, where the Amati instrument conglomerate is? Anyone out there know?). I've got an old Kohlert clarinet (1930's vintage, I'm guessing) made in Graslitz, and I think I recall reading that before the 1920's or so, they were in Winnenden, Germany. The plot thickens!
