Young musicians of many generations have refined their violin playing with this excellent antique 3/4 violin - and according to this, the beautiful, orange-brown varnish bears many traces of use, that can tell a lot of fascinating stories. These minor flaws are typical for small-sized violins that feature extraordinary good sound qualities, as only players who love their instrument will play on it that often or play in the high registers at a young age. Nevertheless, they handled this fine 3/4 violin with great care, that was built in the French violin making town Mirecourt approx. 1880 and is preserved crack-free up to this day.
