Full description

This exceptional violin, crafted by Gaspar Borchardt in Cremona in 1995, is a striking example of modern Italian violin making. Inspired by the early works of Giuseppe Guarneri 'del Gesù', it features a personal model with bold, free-flowing lines and a distinctive character. The top is made from finely grained Italian spruce of the highest quality, known for its resonance and responsiveness. The back is carved from a single piece of beautifully flamed maple, showcasing deep, striking patterns that add to the violin’s visual impact.

The varnish, a rich red-brown with remarkable transparency, accentuates the natural beauty of the tonewood while enhancing its acoustic potential. This careful finish gives the instrument a vibrant, almost glowing appearance, reflecting Borchardt's mastery of the craft.

In terms of sound, this violin offers a direct, powerful, and mature voice, with a confident, soloistic presence that commands attention. Its tonal consistency across all registers and exceptional projection make it an ideal choice for demanding professional musicians.
