Dated 1962 This fine 16" Viola was made in Italy by Genuzio Carletti. It was imported into the USA by Joseph Settin who varnished the instrument and sold it in his shop on 57th Street in NYC, The viola has had a table crack professionally repaired. A new bridge and top quality strings installed. No bow is included and it ships in its original case. My internet search  revealed numerous references to a collaboration between  Genuzio Carletti and Joseph Settin. There are also many sites which list prices realized and or pre-auction estimates for instruments by this maker. I will ship and fully insure for free to the lower 48. International buyers pay the freight and insurance costs and also any import fees and duties etc. Please disregard any costs for shipping other than those in this body. Thanks.
