      We always prefer to have you visit us in person instead of through a distant Internet connection, but understand you might want to see or purchase certain items without driving.   So, after many years, we present this searchable database of our store inventory.We find ourselves so busy in our real store that it is difficult to keep things absolutely up-to-date in our virtual store.  We have may items that are not currently posted and we have stripped the prices off of may things because they were out of date and in violation of our suppliers' policies.  We plan to do a BIG update of inventory and pricing SOON.

Item Information

 Hand-Labeled Hand-made Mid-1900s German Copy of Guarneri 1723 Violin

This violin has attributes consistent with a nicely constructed hand made instrument.

Its attributes are also consistent with German craftsmanship.

The hand-written label appears original, and obviously has some age.  It reads:

Made in Germany. Especially for F. O. Rietch  [illegible] Chicago, Ill.

Guaranteed hand made after the

[illegible] Joseph Guarnarius fecit

Cremona anno 1723"

The label has a rough rendition of Guarneri's cross and IHS after the inscription.

 

All solid carved spruce top.

All solid carved flamed maple back, sides and neck.

Light colored spirit varnish finish.

Ebony fittings.

Dominant strings.

The violin has some finish scratching, mostly on the upper bouts of the top.
