Up for sale is a vintage violin/fiddle with bow and original hard shell case bearing a Lyon & Healy "Made in U.S.A."badge.
This is an attractive older instrument featuring a nicely figured two-piece flamed maple back, spruce top, ebony fingerboard, ebony tailpiece, and traditional wooden tuning pegs. The violin has developed a warm amber patina over the years and has the character expected from a vintage instrument.
The instrument is being sold as found. I am not a violin expert and have not attempted to disassemble, repair, or authenticate it beyond the markings shown in the photos.

Notes
I did not locate an interior maker's label and have not attempted to identify the maker or exact age of the instrument. The violin is being represented simply as a vintage violin/fiddle with Lyon & Healy marked case.
Please examine all photographs carefully, as they are an important part of the description. Feel free to ask any questions or request additional photos.
