Detail Introduction
Worked at Brighton, 1820-1840. Capricious designer. Some violins approaching the Strad in outline and arching. Others 'shot up' in any haphazard style. Some have grotesque figureheads instead of the customary scroll. Excellent wood and really nice workmanship attached to best specimens. Sound-holes generally weak-looking and wobbly. Golden-brown varnish of fair texture sensibly applied. Brilliant type of tone, but often metallic and sharp. ShopsDiscussion board forBaker,William (2) |
