Hand crafted baroque 4/4 violin with antique spirit varnish finish and fitted baroque bridge.
This is a luthier crafted violin which took weeks to make.
High quality and one of a kind instrument for the musician who wants something a bit different.
Features a quality European spruce top with flamed aged maple back.
This violin is fully blocked and lined, and features traditional inlaid purfling, hand carved open scroll and excellent quality hardware.
Finished with a traditional, hand applied (over many weeks ) age old recipe which includes spirit varnishes, shellacs, resins and oils.
We do not like using oil based varnishes as we feel that they hinder and restrict both the sound of the instrument and the beauty of the wood.
The spirit varnish is applied in many layers over a "ground" (like a base coat )
Features:
* Strong even grain on top wood
* Stunning flamed maple neck, back and ribs
* Air dried wood ( 25 years )
* Quality fitted baroque precision carved bridge and sound post
* Four fine tuners will be included in the sale (not everyone likes to use them )
* Hand finished
* Ebony pegs and fingerboard
* Special hand carved baroque tail piece
* Mother of pearl inlaid ebony end pin
* Quality strings
* Attractive and unusual open carving on scroll (hand carved)
NO bow or case are included in this sale sorry but the instrument will be very well packed and sent insured and tracked.
The violin is loud and rich in sound, and can be tuned to a traditional tuning or lower for a baroque tuning.
A lovely instrument which is very hard to find especially at this quality
