A fine quality violin by Joseph Aubry In beautiful condition, with a lovely patina to the rich plum red varnish over a deep gold ground. The violin is signed in ink on the inside back, dated 1933 and with the makers own monogram JA enclosed within F holes. The length
of the one piece back is 14.1/16 inches (35.7 cm.). Fitted with ebony and rosewood fittings, Obligato strings
and supplied in a new lightweight case. Joseph Aubry violins are quite rare and very sought after, this example is of the Guarnerius model, note the quality of the sound holes, scroll and button. Joseph Aubry was considered to be one of the greatest French makers of this period. This is a lovely instrument to play with a quick response
and a clear vibrant sweet tone with a sonorous bass. A beautiful instrument for collector or player, highly recommended! |
