Description
Country/Region of Manufacture: Italy


A superb Italian Mandolin by Giuseppe Vinaccia, Naples, 19th century. I have included a photo of the label. Labelled: Giuseppe Vinaccia, Fabbricante di Strumenti Armonici, Corso Viff Emmanuele, 466 Napoli An 18.The condition is good and I cannot see any splits or damage apart from a tiny chip top right on the piece of tortoisehell below the sound hole. This came from a local estate. A bit of dust on it which I have left to show it's in the original found condition.  Great colour, rosewood, inlay and mother of pearl, a stunning piece. There is a very low starting price and sold without reserve. Size: 60 cm long. 19 cm wide. 14 cm deep. Fully Tracked Shipping is worldwide so please ask for a quote if your country isn't listed.
