Mirecourt Violin labelled Paul Bailly 1907 (OV230713)
Length of Back: 361mm
This is a very nicely made Mirecourt violin, attributed to Paul Bailly, who was a celebrated French maker in the early 20th Century. Although signed on the label, Bailly wasn’t the maker of this violin (but it is possible that it was made for the export markets of UK or USA by some of his workshop assistants).
The violin shows great attention to detail in its construction. It has a beautifully carved scroll and the tonewoods used are of high quality and highly flamed. It features a plum red/brown varnish and is it superb condition.
The violin has a deep and sonorous G string and strong resonance throughout the four strings. It plays sweetly yet has plenty of volume.
It is set up with Evah Pirazzi strings and Wittner tailpiece. A really lovely violin and ideally suited to a committed classical student or traditional player.
