DESCRIPTION:
Here is a unique Giuseppe Battiato Mandolin from the 1900's in good overall shape. This instrument is also called a Mandriola or Tricordia and it features an ornate cosmetic design of a minstrel on the back and dancer on the front. Who knows if there was a story between them!
There is a fair bit of general wear and tear which is common for an instrument of this age but it is structurally sound and plays well.
This mandolin is a super cool piece of history as well as a functional instrument and comes with a newer cardboard case.
