In excellent condition apart from one repaired saddle crack on the right hand side, this does not affect the tone or structure of the violin, it is a lovely instrument with a warm patina to the orange/red oil varnish over a golden ground. The instrument has a two piece back, length is: 14.1/16 inches (35.7cm.) Set up with ebony fittings, Obligato strings and supplied in a new lightweight case. A violin with a rich balanced tone, good in the high positions and with plenty of volume. A very good violin!
