    Just spotted this violin from Brompton's march sale: Look rather nice: http://www.bromptons.co/auction/catalogue/23rd-march-2014/73-a-good-french-violin-by-honore-derazey-mirecourt-circa-1860.html

    How does the auction house define the word Good, Very Good, Fine, Very Fine, Superb, Rare, Interesting, Important, and so on? For instance, what qualifies this violin as a "Superb violin by P Guarneri", rather than a "Very Fine Violin by P Guarneri"? http://www.bromptons.co/auction/catalogue/23rd-march-2014/176A-a-superb-violin-by-pietro-guarneri-venice-1740.html

    What do people think about this violin? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-Very-Old-Antique-18th-Century-German-Violin-Ready-to-Play-No-Reserve-/331141504486?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d19925de6 The front is pretty beat up....

    Here is a genuine Wornle

    Could this be a genuine Georg Wornle? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-Violin-GEORG-WORNLE-Mittenwald-1770-violino-antico-alte-geige-violon-ancien-/221383971235?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item338b8351a3 To me, it seems quite right, but seems like the sound holes were altered.

    Agree. I thought so too!
  15. GoldenPlate
    Nope. I wasn't shown with this violin in person...

    I was recently shown with this old violin by a collector. Any idea what this can be?
  21. GoldenPlate
    How about this one in comparison?
  22. GoldenPlate
    Could you be more specific about what you mean by "crazy corners"? Thanks!

    Can someone please comment on this violin? Origin, workmanship, varnish, etc. Thanks!

    I think the appraisal value here is the replacement value, not the fair market value

    Another violin with the "Hill" Certificate! Could this be it? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fine-certified-violin-according-to-the-COA-made-by-Mathias-Albani-ca-1680-/251458893931?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Sting_Instruments&hash=item3a8c1e386b
