CHEVRIER, (CHEVRY) Claude Auguste (Augustine) Born 1828 Mirecourt, died 1913 Beauvais France. Brother of Amable Chevrier, above. Worked for Koliker in Paris. Later established at Beauvais where he produced many antique-style pochettes for the benefit of collectors. Made other ‘faux-ancien’ instruments, including a Brescian style double purfled violin now in the Brussels Musical Instruments Museum collection with the label ‘Andre Auguste Chevry / Bruxelles 1860’. Other work appears as copies of Lupot and others, but some are quite ordinary Mirecourt productions. Augustin Chevrier / luthier à Beauvais
