Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:3954401 | Country/Region of Manufacture: Germany |
Type: Acoustic | UPC: Does not apply |
The real gem here is the case. The case dates to the late 1800s and was made by the GSB Fiddle Box Factory. Sometimes refe...rred to as coffin cases because they were made by a coffin maker. It is still structurally sound, has working hardware to close it. The lining has come out of it mostly and you can see the wood it is made of. Most likely basswood. The outside of it has a lot of wear. This violin was played alot and must have been well loved.
