Description
This lovely, small size viola measures 15 & 1/8 inches. The maker has not labeled his instrument, and the country of origin is not clear. This viola was European made approximately 100 years ago c 1900. It is a very attractive 15 & 1/8 European Viola with a lovely spirit varnish and excellent hand crafting and fine wood. The viola is in excellent condition considering its age; there are no serious repairs and all signs of wear are simply cosmetic in the blonde yellow varnish. It has had one small f hole crack and one small crack by the saddle on the right hand side repaired. The tone of this viola is not overly bright; it is rich, deep, and full beyond what would be expected based on its size. It has particularly wonderfully ringing overtones.
For $3200.00, this instrument would be a very fine choice for an advanced, small-statured player.
