Click images to enlarge Description Wonderful antique Concertina with 48 bone buttons and 5 bellows I cannot see a makers mark but it could possibly be Wheatstone or Lachenal.Foilate fretted pierced and carved rosewood ends.Leather finger straps - need replacing.Measures 6.25" across flats.
I know nothing about these musical instruments but it appears to be in good condition and plays well all keys work, bellows in good condition, some splitting on a couple of ends which could easily be repaired, one of the cut outs in fretted end has a break - please see photos for further condition.Wooden box is in need of attention - one panel and handle missing.A fine addition to any collection.

Please note postage cost for overseas is an estimate.
Postage to European destinations will more likely be cheaper.
Should the winning bidder be overseas, please do not pay until I pack the item using quality boxes and packing materials and send an accurate invoice the following day. I do not overcharge for postage adding only minimal charge to actual postage cost to cover for boxes, bubblewrap and polystyrene chippings etc. I aim to provide a quality and economical packing service as my feedback illustrates.
