  1. I'm having a hard time figuring out the origin of this instrument. It seems to have a lot of French attributes. It is 24" long, French boxwood pegs with MOP inlay, the saddle could be from anywhere I suppose, and the scroll looks to be French. The top and back both are one piece, which is another clue I think. Also the ribbing seems to be more present than normal German violins from the 19th century (if it is from that period) My confusion is in the varnish. There is no label. If you can identify a maker, Chanot, Schweitzer, even Peter Wamsley maybe (here's hoping), that'd be great. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

  2. My question of the moment: Dutch violinist Simone Lamsma plays the “ex Braga” Stradivarius...and it's cornerless? http://pronetoviolins.blogspot.ca/2013/05/simone-lamsma.html "...Among other violins, she has played a (Ferdinand) Gagliano (1773), a Carlo Tononi (1709), and the Habeneck Strad from 1734, but her current violin is the Chanot Stradivarius (aka the Braga Stradivarius) of 1718 (or 1681 or 1726 – sources differ.) It has been loaned to her by an anonymous benefactor. The violin is reportedly protected by a (Dimitri) Musafia violin case, one of the best violin cases available. The Chanot Stradivarius is rather unique in that it has no corners and has been described as guitar-shaped although it is definitely not guitar-shaped. The Chanot was purchased by Joshua Bell in 1987 and subsequently sold. It is said to have been featured in the 1998 movie The Red Violin. " If François Chanot lived from 1788-1825 and Stradivari lived from 1644 - 1737...how did Strad come to make a Chanot style instrument? I must be missing the obvious...if so...I'm blaming it on long day at work (true!)...
