In a somewhat rare event, Skinner is pleased to offer two outstanding double basses in the upcoming April 13, 2014 Fine Musical Instruments auction. One bass is ascribed to Auguste Sebastien Philippe Bernardel and the other is made by Gragnani. They are accompanied by two wonderful double bass bows.Auguste Sebastien Philippe Bernardel was born in 1798 in Mirecourt and died in 1870 in Bougival. A gifted maker, he was one of three giants among the French makers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries alongside Lupot and Vuillaume.This double bass, ascribed to Bernardel, is a handsome 7/8 size double bass (113 cm in length) with a curved swell back and modeled on the Stradivarius pattern. It was made in Paris in the late 1840s and possesses a well-proportioned outline and cleanly cut F-holes. Instead of a scroll, the bass is crowned by a gorgeous carved lion’s head with a diamond set in the back of the throat. This instrument has a deeply glowing orange-reddish-brown varnish, is amazingly well preserved, and shows only a few minor repairs Buying & Selling Auction Catalogs since 1995.
