24 1/2" L x 8" Wide at Widest Point in Bowl x 6 1/2" in Depth
This is an antique handcrafted traditional mandolin that is beautifully decorated. It has its original eight keys and 7 of 8 strings. It has 1 of 4 original inlaid decorations of mother of pearl on the neck, floral scrolls and a wonderful inlaid wooden body. It is unmarked with no visible maker's name nor serial number. It looks similar to several brands, such as Eugene Howard, Washburn and Oscar Schmidt. I can only offer a best guess of it being from the 1920s based on the style and comparison of very similar models. The condition is overall good for its 100+ year age. It has a beautiful sound quality but it is need of tuning and refurbishment.
