"MADE IN GERMANY Antonius Stradiuarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 1725" Made in Germany, manufactured around 1950 1/2 size violin Body length: 312mm (1/2 size) This is a 1/2 size Stradivarius model violin, manufactured in the Saxony region of Germany around 1950. This is a high-grade fractional size violin, not a mass-produced item, and features a one-piece back. Made using traditional methods, you can enjoy the responsiveness and resonance resulting from nearly a century of aging. This is a wonderful instrument, so please don't miss this opportunity. It is also recommended for upgrading from entry-level instruments as your child grows. How about it for those who don't want to compromise even in fractional sizes? Nurturing rich sensitivity with a good instrument from a young age is, I believe, a shortcut to future improvement.
