Full description
This 1774 Storioni violin has the most traditional Storioni visual, with the almost paralel F-holes slightly angled, opening towards outside from bottom up. The back is greatly preserved and shows an eye-catching attractive varnish wear. This violin highlights are the fine deep carved scroll and its more unfettered elongated f-holes, that show-off the personal interpretation of the instrument's details. It is notable how the free-handling approach promoted such a personal character imprint to this instrument.
Lorenzo Storioni
Lorenzo Storioni, a renowned violin maker, was inspired by the legacy of "Del Gesù" and created his own style with a strong personality. He was considered one of the main keepers of the Cremonese tradition in the late 1700s, alongside G.B. Ceruti and the Bergonzi family. Storioni's instruments are known for their brilliant and powerful sound. Learn more
