This beautiful violin has two clean ‘tram line’ cracks which I have tried to highlight in the photos. One is slightly longer than the other and both reach to the f hole. Not sure how they were sustained but means this is a job for the luthiers / restorers.

No makers mark or label visible to me.

There are a few scuffs and scratches in line with age and some wear on one edge.

Sound post is in place. The violin will require re-stringing and set up. Fitted with old tailpiece and worn chin rest.

Length of back 360mm approx

Total length 593mm approx

Will be posted in old wooden violin case.
