Milano “Bergonzi,” A German Violin From 1927 Imported by Carl Fischer, NY.

This Milano 130 Violin from 1927 was imported from Germany and marketed by Carl Fischer, who sourced several shops in procuring and distributing this line of violins. “Milano” violins were sold through the 50’s but the higher quality examples from the 1920’s now retail for $3,500 to $4,000 in well preserved condition and represent an excellent value and competitive alternative to modern Chinese or Bulgarian instruments at the same price point.
