    Description

    An antique small (3/4?) size cello for restoration. Unknown origin; bears a Belgian repair label from the 1920s and another label from the 17th or 18th century that is likely just a name snipped from
    a book of the period. Still quite old, perhaps 150 years.
    Needs extensive repair with many cracks and losses especially to the top.
