Old Violin Art?

By DarkleyKris, 6 August, 2023
Description

I got this from a friend who claims it’s well over 100 years old. I’m not so sure. I’ve searched all over the internet and can’t find anything like it. It’s not a real instrument, it’s decor of some kind. To sit on the floor or on a shelf I think. There are no markings of any kind as to maker or whatnot. It’s hollow inside like a real one.
