Antique HOPF Violin, with case and 2 BOWS

We are selling this fine old antique Violin marked on the back- HOPF and also with a Crown Mark.

The violin appears to be in good condition. I do not see any cracks.

There is a chin rest. There are four strings, though they are loose and all different.

The violin is also branded HOPF CF on the interior. I was not able to get an image of that.

Approx. length is about 24”.

There is some surface wear on the violin between  the two scrolled openings. Easily colored in with stain.

This violin is also being sold with two bows that were in the case.

They both appear to have ivory and mother of pearl inlay. (one is missing two tiny mop inlay circles.

Also being sold with a hard coffin case that is lined with red thick velvet like lining.

Case is black and has all-over general wear. It does latch securely to close and keep the violin from moving.

I know very little about violins, I welcome any inquiries and will do my best to help answer your questions.

We are starting the fine antique HOPF Violin with two bows and case off at $ 99.99 and selling with NO RESERVE. Good Luck !!!!!!!

Mass. Residents pay 6.25 % sales tax.
