 Louis Clarinet?
Author: Tony F

At the moment a well-known auction site are offering a clarinet purporting to be a Louis. These were made in Chelsea, London from around 1923 until around 1940 and were developed from the very fine instruments of Martel Freres. I have one, and it's a very fine instrument indeed. The puzzling aspect of the instrument offered is that it is clearly marked 'Made in Italy" in English. Does anybody have knowledge of Louis of Chelsea having instruments made in Italy or is it perhaps possible that the instrument offered is a mix-and-match combination of various parts?
