Hello again all fellow lug nerds,

For some time I have been a fan of understated lugs of these French builders. I have been reading quite a bit about the history of french constructeurs but I haven't seen any mentions about the origins of these famous lugs. Did they order them casted just to be used by them or where they made by cutting them from a tube? I'm sure someone here knows something about them. Would be great to hear their history.
