① About the Instrument The previous owner, a musician, provided the following description: "The label is attached, but it's likely a copy. Although the label says 1886, I believe it's a French instrument from around 1900. The label is from a French craftsman whose work fetches around 2 million at Tarisio Auctions, but it's highly probable this is the work of his apprentice (based on the varnish, arching, and f-holes). I'm speaking grandly, but it's just what I've heard from the craftsman. For your reference. (By the way, my musician colleagues all agree it's French, so the sound seems to confirm it.) Judging from the purfling and scroll work, it appears to be handmade. There are age-related scratches and dirt, but it's a healthy instrument with no cracks, peeling, or major repair marks." Size: 4/4. G-A strings are Olive, and E string is Obligato (silver). I've played it a few times. It has a very warm and soft tone. ② About the Bow J.F. DEBER (Daubert Workshop) Lyon, France Violin Bow 4/4 Made in France "F. VINCENT A LYON" engraved Very high-quality Pernambuco wood is used. Ready to use without rehairing. This bow easily produces a very loud sound. It has no flutter, excellent sound quality, and of course, spiccato is effortless. ③ About the Case Toyo Gakki Esprit Oblong Case. Shoulder straps and a lock are included. Made in Japan In beautiful condition, hardly used. ④ Other Spare G-A Vision strings and E Goldbrokat string (new, unused), and Bernardel rosin (used a few times) are as shown in the images. I am an amateur and play a modern Italian viola. However, in June of this year, I needed to support the 2nd violin part due to the ensemble's composition, so I urgently purchased this from a musician within a reasonable budget. However, as I'm over 60 and it's difficult to manage both instruments due to my age, and the violin section has become full, and considering future maintenance, I have decided to put it up for sale. I hope someone who will cherish it will purchase it. Thank you for your consideration. #Violin #Violin #StringedInstrument #Bow #Bow #InstrumentCase #ModernFrench
