Violins
Exciting and attractive violin by Camillus Camilli bearing the original label. Camilli's instruments always sound extremely fine and this is no exception. Head later but matching well. Measurements: Length of back = 35.0cm Upper bouts = 16.3cm Lower bouts = 20.4cm

Fine violin by Chanot (I). Along with Nicolas Lupot and J.B. Vuillaume he created some of the finest instruments of the 19th century Paris school inspired by the great masters. This one is on the rarer Del Gesu pattern, possibly after the Sainton violin of 1733/4 - though the head is slightly less extreme.
