Cello by Pio Montanari, Genova, 2023

This exquisite Stradivari-inspired cello was crafted by master luthier Pio Montanari in 2023. Meticulously following the iconic Stradivari model, Montanari blended precise craftsmanship with artistic interpretation, resulting in a rich, expressive instrument. The highlight of this cello, in our opinion, is the use of willow for the ribs and back, which enriches the sound with sweetness and color, beautifully complemented by the antiqued golden-orange varnish.

      Full description

      This remarkable cello by Pio Montanari, crafted in Genova in 2023, pays homage to Antonio Stradivari’s legendary craftsmanship. The instrument’s ribs and back are made of fine willow, prized for its light density, which contributes to a rich, sweet, and colorful tone. The top is meticulously carved from premium Italian spruce with a beautifully even grain, ensuring optimal resonance. The head, crafted from delicately flamed maple, adds a refined visual touch, enhancing the cello’s elegance. Montanari’s exceptional attention to detail and his mastery of Stradivari’s design principles result in an instrument that balances sweetness and precision. The cello’s tonal palette is versatile and expressive, making it an ideal choice for both intimate settings and grand concert performances. Its golden-Orange new-looking varnish completes this extraordinary instrument, embodying tradition and artistry in perfect harmony.
