Claude Doutre Roussel was a French silversmith active since 1885 in Paris. He was active at 118 rue Vieille du Temple in the historic Marais district of Paris. He was part of a notable silversmithing dynasty. The founder of the Roussel Doutre family of silversmiths was Eugène Roussel Doutre, who registered his mark in March 1849 — a dynasty that lasted until 1969.
