Price Upon Request
A violin bearing an interior label reading “made by Charles Bailly of Paris / copy of J. B. Guadagnini / c. 1900 with Millant certificate.” The reference to a Millant certificate is a statement on the label; no certificate has yet been reviewed or authenticated for this listing. The instrument has warm golden-amber to brown varnish, a figured maple back with strong horizontal flame, matching figured ribs and neck, a dark fingerboard, and a dark wooden chinrest. Maker, place and approximate date are based on the label rather than independently established provenance.
