Very nice mandolin. Here is the USA we call those bowl back mandolins "tater bugs." It is because they resemble to shape of insects known as potato bugs. Sometimes you find them with side pieces coming apart. I have one hanging in my workshop. It one of those projects that I will get around to working on "someday." Thanks for sharing your mandolin with us.

Lovely!
I have an old Wurlitzer mandolin that plays sweetly as well.
