Lorenzo Locatelli, Cremona violin, 2023 (certificate Lorenzo Locatelli)

Cremonese luthier Lorenzo Locatelli created this fine Cremona violin in 2023; its assertively beautiful aesthetic and radiant sound represent the finest features of contemporary Cremonese violin making. A top-tier Italian violin with a certificate of authenticity; ideal for professional violinists.

Virtuosic artisanry and a refined sensibility for aesthetic details define the appearance of this Lorenzo Locatelli violin: this contemporary Cremonese master violin maker handled magnificent tone woods with a confident hand, highlighting their eye-catching grain by giving them the subtle lustre of a thick coat of extremely transparent varnish. Moderately grained spruce was used for the top, and the back, ribs and scroll were carved from a deeply flamed maple, giving the violin its strikingly lovely individuality. The perfectly executed purfling and delicate beesting corners and margins show the self-assuredness of an experienced master. Our luthiers set up this young Cremona violin, which has been kept in perfect condition yet is well-tempered, and it is now ready to play. With its original label and a certificate by its maker, this contemporary Italian master violin is a solid investment for professional musicians with its radiant sound full of timbre, rich substance and a charming melting sound; in this instrument, the centuries of musical tradition born in Antonio Stradivari’s home town live on in our time.
