A 4/4 violin labelled Augustus Pollastri, made in Italy in 1910, in good physical condition and tested and playing, weighing about 0.5 kg and crafted from wood with no extras.
Description from the seller
An old full size violin for professional musician or collector. The violin is in a good shape, with only two small repaired cracks to f-holes. Two pieces back of strongly narrow flamed maple wood, straight high grained spruce top. With its beautifully carved scroll, fluted f-holes and refined orange-brown varnish, this instrument is a elegant personality with a broad range of sound nuances. Warm and matured in its lower registers, its balanced sound of medium power gains clarity, brightness and sweetness in the upper registers.
The label says: "Augustus Pollastri Raphaelis Fiorini alumnus fecit Bononiae an. 1910"
This violin measures:
whole length - 596 mm
body length - 358 mm
upper back - 170 mm
middle back - 115 mm
lower back - 211 mm
Additional photos will be provided upon request. Shipping worldwide insured
