Labelled G. Fourier - - Violin - France

Very good, old French violin, with the label, Lutherie Artistique G.FOURNIERE Année 1893. The instrument has been fully restored and was recently restrung, so it is ready to play. A former crack in the top, running down from the right f-hole, has been carefully repaired and is barely visible. This violin has a particularly good sound, which is certainly due to its low weight of 400 g. Its measurements are 59.1 cm, 36 cm, 16.8 cm, 11.6 cm, 20.8 cm, and the vibrating string length is 32.5 cm. The top is made of mountain spruce, the back of two-piece, beautifully flamed mountain maple; the ribs and neck are also made of flamed mountain maple. The fingerboard and pegs are made of ebony, and the tailpiece is modern, with four fine tuners. The instrument will be carefully packed and shipped with Culissimo, with online tracking available.




Violins and bows described as “certified” or “attributed” include images of their certificates and therefore offer a higher degree of documented certainty regarding maker, origin, and age than instruments described only as “labeled” (violins) or “stamped” (bows), for which we provide no guarantee.
