      Full description

      This late period Vuillaume Stradivari's "Messiah" model violin shows off the highest level of the refined French violin-making standards. It is a rare example with an extraordinary story. This violin was commissioned by the great violinist, professor, and Vuillaume’s son-in-law, Jean-Delphine Alard. The instrument was requested as a gift to Alard’s colleague and dear friend, violinist, and composer Charles Dancla. Alard asked Vuillaume to place a larger label inside the violin that could accommodate his dedication: “From Alard to my friend Dancla. A friendship gift.” Includes original violin case from Charles Dancla.

      Violin Bow by Emil Max Penzel, Erlbach, c. 1930

      By Emil Max Penzel  |  

      A unique mastermaker crafted this Exceptional Pre-WorldWarII German bow. One of the most recognized makers of Germany's early 1900s, Emil Max Penzel, elegantly displays his references and his origins among the makers of the Pfretszchner workshop in this bow, yet preserves and flaunts his own style. In our opinion, the most noticeable aspect of this bow, beyond the excellent craftsmanship, is the stunning high-quality Pernambuco wood.
