Old 1/4 size violin
This nice old 1/4 size violin came into my workshop to be re-set up. It belonged to my customer’s great grandmother, and was the one she’d first learned on in 1895!
Two things were immediately interesting about it…
First the photograph of the original player and label that had been affixed to it back in the late 1800s…
Second, that it’s neck was not morticed...
