Detail Introduction
Son of Franz. Born 1748. Died 1836. Worked at Mittenwald from 1769. Excellent instruments of their type and period. Had the habitual predilection for the rather high arched Stainer model-but also produced a few specimens suggesting Amati influences. Outline, sound-holes, and scroll quite splendid. General workmanship satisfactorily delicate and refined. Good acoustical material for top, and frequently prettily flamed for the back. Yellow, yellow-brown and (principally) dark reddish brown varnish of good quality. Rather powerful tone, not remarkably clear, but with a fair measure of mellowness. £25. (1923). Some examples anti-dated 1700. ShopsDiscussion board forJais,Anton |
