Violins

Handmade violins by Gregorio Martini — carved from seasoned spruce and maple, varnished and set up by hand for a voice that is brilliant, warm and responsive.

About the violins

The violin is the soprano of the string family and one of the most expressive instruments ever devised. Its arched spruce top and maple back, joined by thin bent ribs, turn the vibration of four strings — G, D, A and E — into a sound that can fill a concert hall or whisper in a quartet.

Each violin by Gregorio Martini is built individually: the plates are carved and graduated by hand, the scroll is cut freehand and the varnish is applied in thin, slowly cured layers. The aim is always the same — an instrument that responds immediately to the bow and keeps opening up as it is played.
