16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
Vintage Violin Bridge and Fingerboard

I love the amazing craftsmanship of this violin. My husband’s dad played this violin in the high school orchestra and it was already used when his parents bought it for him. It was made in Germany circa 1930 and shows the years in the scratches in the wood. I'm learning how to play and it also has a really nice sound.
