A beautiful old violin - made in the beginning of the 20th century made aftera very nice Giovanni Paolo Maggini model,
with old label "Giovan Paolo Magini Brefcia, 167... ?" - most likely in the Schuster & Co. workshop, and demonstrates great quality & personality.
A violin with a beautiful  brownish/red  patina , fine carved edges and elegantand good looking double purfling.
This violin is made of good materials - a very nice flamed two-piece back, made of, nicely figured maple,
flamed ribs and a very nice round carved scroll.
This violin produces a strong and warm tone, full of personality.
The violin comes with a new set of strings and a new chinrest, tailpiece.
For a Maggini violin, this violin is not to big, with its interesting back size of 359 mm !
