The sons of Louis Joseph Morizot worked together under the Morizot Frères name in Mirecourt. Their organised workshop produced a substantial number of bows in different grades, typically following strong and practical French models.
Seen within the wider history of french school bow making, the surviving work associated with Morizot Frères is best understood through materials, construction, stylistic detail and comparison with authenticated examples. A brand alone is never conclusive.
