The top purfling and rosette border feature a design of mother-of-pearl and ebony inlays; silver frets; the peghead bears a mother-of-pearl escutcheon with the initials ‘DF?’, probably those of the first owner. Spacing at the nut: 46 mm; scale length: 630 mm. Mismatched pegs, small chip to the ‘moustache’. In exceptional condition. In its original case, with a non-original lock and small accessories, a capodastro, pegs and tuning fork.
