Gorgeous Early Silver Keefer Cornet w/ A-B Tuning Valve    

On auction today is a wonderful looking and playing vintage silver Keefer cornet with a shepherd’s crook.  There are so many wonderful design features on this horn, please be sure to see all the photos to best appreciate them.  The photos should show every square inch for your close inspection.  Note the gold wash bell, the unique blue and white enamel valve caps and the superb floral bell engraving!This horn is in excellent playing condition.  All the valves move smoothly if you remove the first valve slide, there is a solid “pop” sound indicating good compression.  The A-B tuning valves moves easily and all the slides pull (none are stuck).  All the top and bottom valve caps can be removed by hand.  The water key springs shut and is sealing.As with most horns of this vintage, you may find addition adjustments can further improve the performance to best suite your playing style.There are no major dents and a few minor dents on the back bow.  There are also a few minor dings here and there typical for an early horn.The bell reads “Made by Keefer Williamsport, P.A.” and the valve casing reads as follows…

OLD – “DEGANI GIULIO di EUGENIO” – label VIOLA
 

 

THE ESTATE FOUND – FINE, OLD ARTIST LABELED VIOLA:
 
 
DEGANI GIULIO di EUGENIO
premiato con gran diploma d’ onore in Milano
e medaglia d’ oro in Torino 
Anno 1912
Fece in Venezia
  

 - This Viola looks to be in a fine condition for I don’t see anything broken, and there are no side openings.
 - I see no past repaires, and no vissable present issues.
 -  The viola exibits scrapes, scratches all around, varnish unevenness and dings here and there – all usual sings of ware and tear.

 The viola is playable as is, and seem to be in a very good state of preservation for an old instrument; but I am sure it could use professional overhaul, and set up to bring it back to its optimal playing condition. 

This is: 15 – 15.5 inch viola and it measures:

648 mm. – in total length
355 mm. – body length
166 mm. top
110 mm. in the middle
205 mm. wide at the bottom
35 mm. rib height
219 mm. stop
374 mm. nut to bridge 

 
The viola comes in an old case, but no bow. There are no papers, or bill of sale to point to origin, or providence of this instrument.
I DO NOT PLAY VIOLA, AND I CANNOT TELL YOU ABOUT ITS SOUND.
 I have tried to describe this viola as accurately as possible, but there might be issues I have failed to recognize, and I could not be responsible for possible omissions or mistakes. In turn; I have provided many pictures for you to viewing, and evaluation. They are the essential part of my description, and there to help you in making your decision. This is no reserve auction; the viola is to be sold: as is, and the sale is final.
 USPS priority shipping anywhere in US will be: $39.85  The insurance is obligatory, and it will be based on the final price – about $1 for $100 in value insured.
Shipping charge for abroad will be determined at he end of the auction.
-  INTERNATIONAL BUYERS ARE WELCOME!
- I’LL FORWARD DIRECT PAYPAL INVOICE TO WINNING BIDDER AT THE END OF THE AUCTION!
If you have any questions or concerns about this item please ask before bidding, and before the end of the auction.
 
Thank you and Good Luck bidding.

1900-1905 Braun & Hauser Parlor/Romantic Guitar

1900-1905 Braun & Hauser Parlor/Romantic Guitar

Buy Now

Current price:

$202
Hello, for your consideration I have up for auction an antique guitar from the Braun and Hauser workshop circa 1900-1905.  This guitar is in playable condition but needs a good amount of restoration.  I have tried to provide pictures where splits in the wood and other imperfections occur but some things are hard to capture with the camera so I will try to describe the damages as best as I can.
 There is a split on the soundboard that runs from the bridge up to the soundhole between the E and B strings.  That same split appears to continue on the other side of the bridge towards the bottom of the soundboard along with another split that starts from the bridge lining up with the low E string pushpin (pic 3).  There are also a split that runs partially around the rosette and one that goes down the side of the neck on the treble side (pic 5 and 12).  On the sides of the instrument there is a couple of small pieces of wood that look as though they have been reglued at some point and there is some splitting at the seam (pic 10).  The tuning pegs need to be replaced as only a couple are the same, not sure if any of them are original (pic 8).  At the top of the headstock is a repaired crack.  On the back of the neck the black paint has been worn to the wood on one side (pic 7).  One interesting aspect to this guitar is that on the heel of the neck is an inscription in German but the letters are a little worn making it hard to make out any of the words to translate (pic 9).
Damages aside, this has the potential to be a nice guitar both as a collectable and performing instrument.  Currently it is strung with Aquila Romantic Ambra 800 strings.  Again, the pegs need to be replaced as they can be hard to turn.  However, this guitar has a very nice sound in the Romantic fashion and could be a good way to explore the early 19th century repertoire.  When I bought it I had the intent of having it restored but acquired older and already restored instruments so now someone else will have a chance to work on it.  Below is a description of the Braun & Hauser workshop from Zavaleta’s website which previously had two examples for sale with an asking price of over $2,000.  I highly encourage viewers of this auction to visit his website as there is also a guitar by Hermann Hauser’s father, Josef.  The Josef Hauser guitar on his website is strikingly similar to the one that I have up for auction, in particular the body shape and bridge style.  Perhaps this guitar is an example of Hermann borrowing from his father’s construction style.
Hermann Hauser (1882-1952) was the son of Josef Hauser (1854-1939), a luthier and zither maker. About 1900, according to Hermann Hauser III, shortly after Hermann graduated from the State School for Violin Making in Mittenwal, Josef lost an arm in a streetcar accident, and was forced to sell his workshop to a Mr. Steigenberger. Josef sold Hermann with the shop. The sales contract specified that Hermann was to work for the new workshop for 5 or 6 years. Mr. Steigenberger also had purchased a workshop from Mr. Braun, and so the new workshop was called Braun und Hauser. Hermann was central to the business, and became the foreman of the Braun and Hauser shop. Once Hermann left, the shop seems to have gone out of business.
This guitar does not come with a case but great care will be taken in preparing it for shipment.  Thank you very much for viewing this listing and please feel free to ask any questions.  International inqueries are welcome.
