Paul Lorange, a well-known French luthier, was a key figure in the luthiery scene of Marseille during the early to mid-20th century. Born in Lyon, France, in 1900, he was the son of another luthier named Paul Lorange. After working with a fine luthier named Diter, he established his independent workshop in the same city in the early 1930s. Lorange was known for his fine workmanship on classical models and his use of various shades of red varnish, a signature style that added to the allure of his instruments.
