Labeled, "...es Franciscus Celoniatus fecit Taurini An. 1727."
LOB: 35.6 cm
An attractive and typical example of Celoniato’s work, this violin demonstrates the particular nuances and characteristics for which this rare maker is known – swung soundholes with stark notches, an attractive golden varnish, a broad, flat model and a unique head model. The sound is powerful and well balanced, and the overall state of preservation is notable for an instrument of this age.
