Lot 515: Buffet Crampon & Cie Bb Clarinet in Padded Case
A Bb clarinet by Buffet Crampon & Cie, Paris, likely a student model. The instrument is constructed with a black ABS resin body and features nickel-plated keywork. It is disassembled into its five standard components: mouthpiece with metal ligature, barrel, upper joint, lower joint, and bell. Both the bell and upper joint bear the stamped maker mark within an oval reading BUFFET / Crampon & Cie / A PARIS. Accessories included with the instrument are a tub of Herco cork grease and a small plastic bottle of maintenance fluid. The set is housed in a black, padded soft-sided carrying case with a plush-lined interior and nylon carry handles. An auction lot sticker from HCP Auctions South West and a handwritten paper slip with the number 9653 are present.
