| Hello, Could someone tell me where he/she thinks this instrument has been made? And when. I am very interested when somebody maybe knows something about it. Thanks a lot. Best regards.

Unlike almost every instrument shown here for identification, this one looks like something good.
I don't recognize the maker, but that's not important- I am a player not a dealer.
Hold on to it, and bring it to a reputable expert.
good luck

Yep! It's a nice one.
I would like to see a side photo in order to look better at the arching... just to be sure if it's a Bohemian work.
At the moment I can not say where it comes from.

Thanks for the photos!
Hm... Difficult to know. I'm not sure. It's a nice work, nice wood, nice varnish. The form is a little bit wide that why I suspect it's a German work.
However, middle of 19th century I can tell.
Take it to a specialist, he/she should know better... I hope.
