  1. this is a beautiful violin David! I always loved it, and also like the way you photographed it here on the normal size peg. You've done an amazing job with this violin!

  2. It looks so much like my 1:1 violin (except I use steel-covered nylon strings). Incredible.

  3. Hi David!
    Thanks for showing yet another gorgeous miniature.
    Your work is so detailed it is just amazing.
    Photographing it on a real size peg makes one realize just how incredibly tiny this is. Beautiful!
    Hugs,
    Gee

  7. Hello David! I have been a fan of yours since the 80's but have only now discovered your blog! You do some of the most detailed and exciting work I know and this violin is exceptional and it would be truly wondrous if there were a pair of mini hands to play and enjoy it!
