Ventus by Eastman Bb Trumpet - Silver with Hardshell Case

The item is a Ventus by Eastman Bb Trumpet, finished in silver, presented within its original, custom-fitted brown hardshell case. The trumpet exhibits a polished silver-colored metallic finish, likely silver plating over brass, which appears to be in excellent condition with a high luster, suggesting minimal tarnish or significant wear. Key physical characteristics include the bell at one end, a series of three piston valves operated by finger buttons, various tuning slides, and the main tubing. The construction appears solid and well-engineered, typical of a brass wind instrument. No visible dents, significant scratches, or damage are apparent on the trumpet's body, indicating careful handling and storage. The valves and slides appear fully intact and ready for use. The case itself is a rectangular hardshell design, likely constructed from wood or composite material, covered externally with a brown, textured material that mimics leather. It features robust gold-toned metal latches and hinges, and a dark brown carrying handle. The interior is meticulously fitted with dark brown, plush velvet or velour lining, custom-molded to cradle the trumpet securely and prevent movement or damage during transport. The lid of the case prominently displays the “Ventus by Eastman” logo in gold lettering, indicating the manufacturer. An accessory compartment is visible within the case, though its contents are not discernible. The overall presentation suggests a relatively new or very well-maintained instrument, likely from a contemporary production period given the brand and apparent condition. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, consistent with a reputable musical instrument manufacturer.
