Violin - Arno Tauscher 1905 with a dedication to a friend on label. Most likely a player who commissioned its making. Famed violin maker of his time lived and worked throughout europe and america during his lifetime(read attached photo). Ysaye and other contemporary violin soloist's spoke very flatteringly of his work. Beautiful and well preserved condition for being 120 years old. Professionally dressed and setup. Exquisite violin.
