Antique French violin, around 1920 M. Couturieux

Sold

French violin from the 1920's. The violin is a high quality handmade from Mirecourt on a model of M.Couturieux. A very good and extremely carefully made instrument, it follows a personal interpretation of the model, with arching kept flat, wide corners and finely rounded edges. The transparent red-brown varnish is witness to intensive playing and gives the large violin its special, noble character. This good French violin, which is crackfree, was worked over and set up in our violin making workshop and is offered in perfect playing condition. Its sound is clear, dark sweet and rich in overtones, balanced across the registers and the four strings, ringing in the upper ranges and rich in overtones. Like all our string instruments and bows, free shipping, 30-day return policy and unlimited trade-in guarantee.
