Arithelion Posted March 11, 2025 Report Posted March 11, 2025 I am looking to buy a violin and want to know if it’s authentic or not. I’ve attached the label and am not sure. What else should I look for in this particular violin maker. Thanks in advance for your help!
jacobsaunders Posted March 12, 2025 Report Posted March 12, 2025 we had a real Joseph Klotz (senior) label here
deans Posted March 12, 2025 Report Posted March 12, 2025 https://www.geigenbaumuseum-mittenwald.de/kloz-joseph-1743-1829/ Is the fiddle even plausible? Closest one here would be the last one. You would probably need a hand writing expert, if really done by hand they will all be different by a bit, especially over time. I have one with a label very similar to the second one down, definitely old Mwald, but made entirely by Joseph? probably not.
