Original article here.

In 1935, one Alfred Grosjean (as named in a separate TIME magazine article) invented the "violaeol."

Some years later, luthier Josh Rieck recreated one for his own use.

Rather neat looking instrument. Violins have beauty in the curves though and their sound is richer and fuller to my ears.
