Vas Dias Stanesby A=415 #569 Baroque Oboe (new)

This brand new H.A. Vas Dias baroque oboe is an exact reproduction of one made by Thomas Stanesby, Sr., c. 1700. Mr Vas Dias viewed and measured the original at the Hamamatsu City Museum, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, Ex Rosenbaum Collection. Mr. Vas Dias is now in his late 90’s (and going strong). How many more of these will be made? We don’t know.
