In addition to AG2012’s information, Soufflot worked in Paris at 89, rue Turbigo.

He was the successor of Henri Chenailler and was succeeded by Olier & Caron.

All of the above information and more can be found by doing a search of the 925-1000 database.

The relatively wide spatula is characteristic of Soufflot’s patterns.

There is a personalization of an applied marriage crest under the coronet of a marquis.
