Certification
A Carriage House Violins certificate is your assurance of the authenticity of your instrument or bow. Christopher Reuning’s expertise is respected worldwide.
If you purchase a professional quality instrument, a certificate will be provided at no charge. As well, we are happy to examine your instrument, if it was not purchased from us, and offer our opinion as to its origin.
A set of color photographs is attached to the certificate if the instrument is valued at $30,000 or higher.
