A copy of patent application with instrument description and original sketch is available on my website www.lucassobieranski.com

Another English Mandolinetto restored to fully playable condition. Although I got the instrument in somewhat playeble state it did required repairs to top, complete refinishing, new bridge and tensioner.
Music in background is a piece in Celtic style composed for this video by me (probably could've been played better).

Although it was more likely to be made in Saxony, Germany it was only intended for English market so I guess we can still call it English Mandolin
