Antique 1/2 violin by Colin-Duchene from the 19th century, this petite 1/2 violin has a bodylength of around 30 cm and is a traditional handcrafted instrument from Nancy, built around 1880, a powerful sounding model with an original brand stamp. Its richness of sound is extraordinary! The 1/2 violin sounds strong, warm, powerful and very multi-faceted. In the upper ranges, it is bright, clear, open and singing. Mature, full of character and noble in the lower ranges, just as clear, strong and powerful. A fine 1/2 master violin for soloists that responds easily and gives great pleasure to the expert. Its construction is – typically French – very elegant with a particularly beautiful edge work and inlay: its appealing warm color is created by a darkened orange-brown varnish. Like all Corilon instruments, it is in good condition, has been worked on by our violin makers, checked and is ready to play. It is delivered free of shipping costs, with a 30-day right of return and Corilon's trade-in guarantee.
