This violin is in very good condition with beautiful warm brown
varnish with golden highlights.
It was made and repaired by Louis Krieckhaus in
1917 and labeled as number 146. Apparently later the
same year he re-graduated the top and back. Then in August, 1921, the
violin
was again graduated by E. T. Lord, in Miami, Florida. Through the shop
of Paul Perley, the instrument was sold to
a family living in the
Montpelier, Vermont area. The new
owner is a student of the
well known violinist and teacher, Ray Malone.
