Title: Antique Miniature Violin - Collectible or novelty?
Post by: Mullen Coins on June 19, 2014, 06:07:14 PM

Here are images of a very nice miniature violin in case.  Violin and case both appear to be hand made but show no branding or makers marks.   Collectible antique of novelty piece?

Looks pretty roughly made to me !!  Case is much nicer than the violin !!
