Rare Antun Nahat 1919

Oud.Proff - 5-30-2016 at 08:25 AM

Hello everyone;
I'd like to share with you my Antun Nahat 1919 oud; with a very unique (never seen before to me !) label of the maker himself holding one of his ouds (unless someone can verify otherwise).

Will post more details on this rare masterpiece soon.

All the best,

Hurray Prof.
Absolutely not !
This is the first time that this label is ever seen. I doubt if there's another living oud of Antoine's with such a label.

As to the rosette, it's more common and well known Maqamat rosette. We've seen it a lot on Abdo's ouds, as well as on Hanna's & Antoine's.

Waiting to see the whole beast.

My very dear Alfaraby,

Thanks for the provided yummy pictures...
In fact, the label was the strongest appetizer for me to get this masterpiece.
Will put on some good strings tonight and see what it has to say ;)

Kindest regards habibi,
