Violin Sous la direction of Gustave Villaume, Nancy circa 1930 (OV24092)

Length of Back:  357mm)

This violin was made under the direction of Gustave Villaume, a reputable Luthier from Nancy, France.  The instrument has great arching, a striking two piece maple back of high quality tonewood.  It is finished in a soft honey-like amber varnish and is labelled internally as having been made ‘sous la direction’ of Gustave Villaume.

It has a lovely warm and sweet tone with good volume and would suit a committed classical student or traditional fiddler.

It is set up with Helicore Strings and Wittner Tailpiece and is a delight to play.  

A lovely violin from a very respected workshop!  

It comes in a new lightweight case.
