Seven Violins. One Signature.
A LEGACY CARRIED ON
The Signature Series is a limited edition of seven bench copies of the 1734 “Willemotte, Kavakos” Stradivari — the personal violin of Leonidas Kavakos. Created by Luiz Amorim in collaboration with one of the greatest soloists of our time, these violins capture the voice, character, and soul of the original. Each one is signed internally by both the maker and the artist who inspired it.
Seven Violins. Seven Stories.
Luiz Amorim
Master maker Luiz Amorim brings decades of fine art and violin-making expertise to each bench copy — capturing not only the form but the feeling of the original.
A Limited Series
Each instrument is built by hand, for those who understand what it means to own a violin shaped by legacy and artistry.
Leonidas Kavakos
One of the most celebrated violinists of our time, Kavakos shares his instrument, his insight, and his legacy in each signed violin of the series.

Luiz Amorim x Leonidas Kavakos
A one-time collaboration. Seven handcrafted violins, benchcopies of the 1734 “Willemotte, Kavakos” Stradivari. Signed. Numbered. Played to inspire.
One violin, shaped by two artists.
A LEGACY CARRIED ON
These instruments are the result of years of observing old instruments, studying makers of the past, and capturing the essence through craft. Luiz Amorim’s process draws from fine arts, scientific observation, and the Cremonese tradition to bring a portrait of the original to life — with soul, not just shape. Each violin is a bridge from the past to the present, involving music, history, and identity. These violins are meant to be played, felt, and passed on. This project is about legacy, carried on.
