Some instruments simply want to be heard again, and this old violin is one of them. Carried across the Atlantic and once kept in good order by a Cincinnati dealer and repairer named Adolph Spicker, whose label still rests inside the body, it has now been professionally restored and set up by a luthier. The result is a warm, glowing antique with a deep amber to chestnut varnish, an honest patina earned over many decades, and a sound that is ready for the concert hall once more.
The interior carries both an inscription and the original "Dealer and Repairer, Cincinnati, Adolph Spicker" etiquette, a charming slice of American musical history from the days when violins changed hands in the parlours and workshops of the Midwest. While the descriptive paperwork describes it as a fine old German violin, the Spicker label firmly places its working life in the United States. It comes fitted with quality ebony accessories and is strung up and ready, so a player can lift it from the case and begin straight away.
This is a genuine antique that has lived a full life. Expect the gentle wear, varnish character and small marks that tell its story honestly, all addressed by recent professional restoration so the instrument is sound, stable and concert ready.
