Violin from the workshop of Walter Mahr

Description:

Elegant Violin Inspired by Amati – Traditionally Handcrafted

This full-size violin is built according to the harmonious proportions of the renowned Italian master Andrea Amati. Its final shape was achieved through meticulous handcrafting by an experienced luthier – an instrument that blends classical tradition with expressive tonal quality.

Materials & Tonewoods:

• The two-piece top is made from finely selected spruce with medium-width annual rings – enhancing the instrument’s warmth, depth, and tonal richness.
• The two-piece back is crafted from beautifully flamed maple, featuring a striking grain that flows from the center seam toward the ribs.
• Ribs and neck are also made of high-quality maple – perfectly matched in both sound and appearance.

Varnish & Aesthetics:

• The refined antique-style varnish features a warm chestnut-brown base, elegantly accented by a clear golden-yellow hue – subtle yet distinctive, evoking the character of classic Italian instruments.

Sound Characteristics:

• The violin offers a balanced, full-bodied tone with clear response and deep resonance – equally well-suited for solo performance and ensemble playing.
