lFred Posted February 24, 2025 Report Posted February 24, 2025 I thought I share this one, as it's a funny little violin from a maker you don't usually think off, especially considering this particular model is rare. (photos are raw un edited, white balance is correct but background has not been cleared) Name of the maker to follow but you may have a crack at it before I tell
lFred Posted February 25, 2025 Author Report Posted February 25, 2025 In Eric's Book I think there is a Marchetti from 1912 that has a a kindred general look although wider. But the above instrument is french
Gtone Posted February 25, 2025 Report Posted February 25, 2025 Joseph Calot? Turin inspired... just a wild guess...
fiddlecollector Posted February 25, 2025 Report Posted February 25, 2025 Tj Holder? (wrong, i know the answer but i,ll keep quiet)
lFred Posted March 4, 2025 Author Report Posted March 4, 2025 So this violin was made by the grandson of François Caussin, nephew of Nicolas and François Hippolyte Caussin, Louis Collenot who I my opinion made a lot of the late violin ascribed to François Hippolyte. But not this one, as he signed it from Reins in 1899
Richf Posted March 4, 2025 Report Posted March 4, 2025 Thank you. I had no idea about it, but was curious to learn the maker.
