Johann Gottlieb in Waldeck - 4/4 - - 小提琴 - 1800

The violin is built in the traditional style, with an influence likely from the German or Austrian school, as indicated by the label inside the instrument, which reads “Johann Gottlieb in Waldeck” with a date. This suggests a maker from that region, likely following a classical German lutherie tradition.

The f-holes have a more rounded, narrow cut, typical of German violins, rather than the elongated f-holes seen in Italian violins. The varnish exhibits a warm, amber tone, often seen in Central European violins, which enhances the wood’s natural flame. The scroll and pegbox show careful craftsmanship, aligning with traditional German methods.

Overall, the violin construction aligns with 19th-century Germanic practices, both in aesthetic and functional design. The instrument’s shape, materials, and style suggest it was built with an adherence to regional craftsmanship techniques focused on durability and tonal depth. The instrument has some repaired cracks, please advise the pictures. An old violin cover is included in this lot.
