Rare pre-war TARV Trumpet in Bb - Mark Rewo - Silver plated & 24K Gold

Rare pre-war TARV Trumpet in Bb - Mark Rewo (or Reno) - Silver plated & 24K Gold Accents

This is a really unique trumpet made approximately during the interwar period. I have never seen the same piece. It has a specific T.A.R.V. design which combines rotary valve system with top action control. It is in Bb tuning.

The trumpet was rescued on a floor attic in Czech Republic. There was stored for decades and unused maybe the last 50 years. It was in deplorable (poor) condition and I felt sorry for this extremly rare piece. For that reason I decied to complete restoration. You can now see the result of this long and demanding process.

I hope, the trumpet will find a new owner, maybe a collector who breathes life into.
