| An early Mirecourt violin in the style of François Salzard. The actual maker is unknown but this is a violin with character that produces a good tone. The back is one piece, length 14.3/16 inches (35.9 cm.), The fittings are in rosewood including the chinrest,
set up with Dominant strings and supplied in a new light weight case. The condition is good although there are a couple of ancient repaired cracks in the upper right bout. This instrument has a lovely warm and sonorous deep bass with a lyrical treble and is crystal clear in the high positions. A good violin that is a pleasure to play! |
