This violin is built in the Stradivari tradition, evident from its symmetrical proportions, elegant arching, and refined craftsmanship. The f-holes have a precise, narrow design with smooth curves, a feature commonly associated with 19th and early 20th-century French or German workshop instruments modeled after Stradivari.

The two-piece maple back has a deep flame, indicating high-quality tonewood selection. The top plate is tight-grained spruce, ensuring good resonance and tonal clarity. The varnish is a rich reddish-brown, characteristic of Mirecourt and Markneukirchen violin-making schools, which aimed to replicate the appearance of Cremonese instruments.

The scroll and pegbox exhibit clean carving, with a well-executed spiral, suggesting workshop production with a skilled level of hand-finishing. The overall construction suggests a fine-quality instrument from a well-respected European workshop, likely built between the late 19th and mid-20th century.
