Violin by Franz Kinberg, 1958 – Chicago, Illinois
This full-size violin was made in 1958 by Franz Kinberg, a violin maker active in mid-20th century Chicago. Kinberg’s work reflects a strong understanding of classical form and American craftsmanship, with clean lines, careful attention to detail, and a focus on tonal quality.
Built with well-selected tonewoods and finished in a warm amber-brown varnish, this instrument offers a clear, focused sound with a warm core and even response across the strings. It’s an excellent choice for advancing students or players seeking a mid-century American violin with character, reliability, and a refined, singing voice.
A solid and expressive example of American lutherie from one of Chicago’s lesser-known, yet skilled makers.
