Description from the seller

Hello, dear customer.
You are bidding on a beautiful old 4/4 violin labeled “Georges Chanot quai Malaquais 1 à Paris année 1853.”

This elegant French instrument has a refined and attractive appearance, showing the character and craftsmanship of the mid-19th century. The violin features repaired top corners and likely several small professionally repaired cracks consistent with its age, while remaining structurally stable and ready to play.

The instrument offers a remarkably deep, mellow, and powerful tone with rich resonance and excellent warmth, making it especially appealing for expressive playing.

Measurements: total length 594 mm, body length 359 mm, upper bouts 164 mm, middle bouts 113 mm, lower bouts 206 mm.
Worldwide DHL shipping available.






Violins and bows described as 'certified' or 'attributed' include images of their certificates and are therefore considered to have a higher degree of documented certainty regarding maker, origin, and age than instruments described only as 'labelled' (violins) or 'stamped' (bows), for which we provide no guarantee of any kind
