We specialize in locating and restoring older instruments of the violin family.
The above violin bears the label of Honore Derazey. I buy collections of instruments, as well as old books and catalogues on the violin. I can locate instruments by a particular maker, as well as appraise your instruments for insurance purposes. I have been serving the violin community since 1982.
I just returned from several buying trips and have some very fine instruments! Many are quite old, (1840 and before).
The above is a nice Italian violin I have recently acquired.
Among the lower priced items, I currently have a nice 1962 Roth violin, complete with original bow and case; excellent condition and ready to play!!!
