Geniatana Bohemia

Bohemia · around 1900

This magnificent instrument is distinguished by an open, noble and colourful tone with exceptional responsiveness, which gives the player a wide range of expression and interpretive freedom.

The violin's special value is emphasised by the exceptionally beautiful, strongly flamed maple of the back, whose unique natural figure gives the instrument a recognisable and inimitable character. The unique harmony of colour, combined with the original transparent amber-brown varnish and a rich natural patina, creates an exceptionally elegant appearance.

Harmonious proportions, a light construction and quality craftsmanship place her among the appealing representatives of the Bohemian violin-making tradition of the early 20th century. Although she bears no label or brand stamp, the instrument radiates a distinct artistic and collector's value.
