If it were manufactured in France, it may not be a "baritone horn" but some form of saxhorn. Around 30 years ago I needed a brass instrument to teach some cadets in a marching band, so on the fly I picked up cheap what I thought was an old baritone/euphonium sized thing that was around 80-90 years old. It was made by a French company Gautrot (AKA Gautrot-Couesnon or Couesnon) and when I did some research years later about it, a French music museum sent me copies of the Gautrot catalogues from ca. 1910 and turns out it is actually a "bass saxhorn". We tend to think of tuba-size instruments as "bass something" when it comes to brass, so surprised me when they told me what it was.
