Labelled Bissolotti - - 小提琴 - 義大利 - 1980

A very fine violin labelled Francesco Bissolotti 1980.

Excellent spruce was used for the top, the back and sides are from the same lightly flamed maple. The scroll of maple without flames.
The varnish is typical of the period: golden yellow
Excellent condition hardly ever played if at all!
The tuning pegs are hand-made from local wood by the luthier himself.

The violin is set up with new strings but they are likely from the 1980's when the violin was made.
