This well played French 3/4 sized violin by Collin-Mezin fils was made in 1951 in the French violin making town of Mirecourt on a typical French styled Collin-Mezin model. Flawless craftsmanship is clearly visible at the purfling, that was accurately inlaid and finely extends into the corners. The small scroll is a beautiful Mirecourt trade work and beautifully carved. Quality tonewoods are visible under the red-brown varnish; the beautifully flamed maple of the back is especially worth to be mentioned. We offer the violin in perfect condition, ready to play with a certificate by J.-J. Rampal included in the price. Luthier-checked and in brought by our luthiers to immediate playing condition its bright and clear sound unfolds with a sweetish character. Like all instruments and bows from us, this includes free shipping, our trade-in guarantee and a 30 day return guarantee.
