Please study all photographs carefully as they form part of the description. I am not a violin expert, so I cannot comment on tone, playability or whether any adjustments or restoration may be required. The violin is therefore sold exactly as pictured.
A lovely antique instrument with excellent display appeal and the potential to make a fine playing violin after professional setup.
