Emile Boulangeot, Lyon 1925

About the instrument:

Our Boulangeot violin, dating from 1925, is an exceptional example from the maker. The fruits of a lifetime of the highest quality professional activity are evident in the fine workmanship, the excellence of the varnish – in application, colour and texture – and the outstanding tonal qualities. A superb example both for the player and collector.

The violin back, length 356mm, is in one piece of quarter-sawn maple with a strong curl of fine-medium width; the ribs, scroll and neck of similar wood. The front is of medium grain spruce which broadens towards the flanks and the varnish of a red-brown colour on a golden ground.

Certificate from Jean-Jacques Rampal, Paris: “This instrument is a very beautiful example of this Master.”
