cello 1802
Length of back: 28¾" (730mm)
String length: 26¾" (680mm)
Price: £45,000
(Cello
Exchange)
The instrument is very
pure and original, the tone is deep, rich and consistent across the instrument
and projects very well. The varnish is a dark brown with a
beautiful craqueleur. The cello is branded J & H BANKS in many
places internally and also below the button. This fine example of the later work of the Banks
family was noted by the Hills on account of the inscription on the back
beneath the button: 'Varnished by Thomas Dodd' which supports
the theory of a working relationship between Dodd and the Banks family
at this time.
