Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

This cello was made in the workshops of W. E. Hill & Sons at some point between 1890 and 1895. It stayed in the Hill's shop until 1962 at which point it was varnished, labelled and sold.

It is our understanding that there were only 31 cellos produced by the Hill workshop.
