Introduced in 1918, the Style 8 is a beautiful instrument featuring a Sitka Spruce soundboard, an exotic veneer and 23+ karat gold leaf gilding. Layers of intricately carved designs adorn the top of the column while the decoration at the base features a graceful pattern of swirling leaves accented by an occasional daisy. The hand-painted soundboard decoration features a rococo design of dashing crescents entwined with floral vines.
