"George Gemünder (1816-1899) was a German-born violin maker who worked in the United States. Gemünder was born at Ingelfingen, in the kingdom of Wurtemburg. With his brother August & others, he pioneered the construction of quality violins in the United States. He was a pupil of Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume in Paris, & moved to the United States in 1847, establishing himself in Boston. In 1851 his violins won a medal at the World's Fair in London. In 1852 he moved to Astoria, now part of New York City. Vuillaume, & other European makers violin makers often applied chemicals to their instruments to produce a pseudo-antique look & some believed a desirable tone quality. However, Gemünder felt that wood so treated would soon lose its resonance & render treated instruments worthless. Gemünder succeeded in making excellent violins without chemical treatments. His violins are highly regarded for their volume, power, balance, & overall tone, & have been favorable compared to the work of the best old masters. He was unusually successful in the model & finish of his instruments, & especially the varnish. He so faithfully reproduced the distinctive characteristics of old Italian violins that those made by him are not infrequently mistaken for genuine Cremonas. One called the 'Kaiser', finished in 1873 & sent to the Vienna exhibition, was pronounced an Italian violin of the classic period by judges who thought it impossible to produce so fine a tone from a new instrument. Gemünder also received medals from exhibitions held in Paris (1867), New York (1870), Vienna (1873), Philadelphia (1876 'hors concours'), Amsterdam (1883), Nice (1883-1884), London (1884), New Orleans (1884-1885 'hors concours'), & London (1885). He wrote a book called George Gemünder's Progress in Violin Making (Astoria, New York, 1881), to which he prefixed an autobiographical sketch."
