Lachenal Anglo Semi-Miniature - Discount Price

[Dowright]

Lachenal No. 7103 (circa 1867)

20-key in C/G

4 7/8 inches across flat hexagonal rosewood ends

Bone buttons

Steel reeds

6-fold green leather bellows with decorative papers

"M & Co" in fretwork (Metzler & Co. of 37 Great Marlborough Street, London--a major retailer of Lachenal concertinas from the earliest days onward.)

There are some hairline cracks in the fretwork, but of no consequence. The fretwork is absolutely stable, because the fretwork on each side is backed by an adhering baffle. If anything, the minor cracks add charm.

In a soft gig bag (see photo) and comes with a very unusual item--its original hexagonal cardboard box.
