Tell us something.: in two words, Rudall & Rose. but since a minimum of 100 characters is required, I should list a number of makers I found extremely interesting… I don't even know how much are 100 characters...

Small holes version, I love that, but it is often unnoticed.

Christies sold nine key Rudall & Rose 3230 for £1,434 ($2,631), 3rd November 2004 ,and someone, Jim in Co. Clare, tried on DoneDeal Ireland to sell another nine key Rudall & Rose 2293 for €3,750 (£3186) (€4021) in July 2016. So £2000 isn't a mad price

Looks like it ended unsold.

It was immediately relisted on Jan 30th but is now marked as sold (at the same start price of £2k), so the vendor must have taken a side offer on it.
