This antique double bass ornament has been embellished with details reproducing the fine definition of the instrument's principal anatomy: a concave c-bout accented with violin corners, an f-hole to either side of the bridged strings, the iconic tapering upper bout and a head incorporating machine heads and nuts, terminating with a scroll.

Silver quality/purity mark: eagle head (18k, 18 carat)

Maker's mark: untraced


*A double bass can also be known as a bass, upright bass, string bass, acoustic bass, acoustic string bass, contrabass, standup bass, bull fiddle, doghouse bass and bass fiddle.

The cast decoration is very sharp.

The French eagles head and maker's mark struck to the reverse surface of the neck are deeply struck, they are clear in keeping with age and location.


Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this yellow gold ornament.
