You are bidding on a fine French 4/4 violin bearing the label “Jean Baptiste Vuillaume à Paris, 3 rue Demours-Ternes JBV.”
Condition:
The instrument retains its original golden-amber varnish, showing only minor signs of age and wear.
No cracks are present.
Description:
The top is crafted from high-quality straight-grained spruce, while the two-piece maple back displays a gentle flame, matched beautifully with the ribs, neck, and scroll. The elegant purfling reflects fine workmanship, enhanced by the attractive golden-amber varnish.

Its tone is powerful, warm, and richly resonant with excellent depth.

Shipping:
Worldwide insured DHL shipping with fast and secure delivery.
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
