Antique Saxon viola (38.8 cm) with a wonderful sound and impeccable craftsmanship.
The viola was built at the end of the 19th century according to regionally typical models. The high quality craftsmanship of this viola, with a body length of around 39 cm, is evident in the carefully worked inlay, the flat archings of the top and back, and the quality of the selected tonewoods, which are emphasized by the light brown varnish: regular medium-grained spruce was used for the top of the viola, deeply flamed maple for the two-piece back. The viola, which has been expertly restored with minimal repairs to the ribs, has been professionally set up and is ready to play, as are all our string instruments. This handy viola is recommended for its warm, well-rounded, distinctly beautiful “viola-like” sound, which is resonant and full of character and volume.
