In 1946, Friulian violin maker Marcino Bran made this beautiful Italian violin. Most presumably this is the instrument that was sent to the competition in the framework of the great Stradivari exhibition in 1949, that took place in Cremona on the occasion of Antonio Stradivari´s 300st anniversary. It was honored by the jury and included on the "Registro del violino del Museo civico di Cremona". The delicate work on this narrow violin is a successful Italian modern-age masterpiece with an individual, unmistakable style which is evident in the stylish sound holes and graceful scroll on an intentionally narrow peg box. Special mention must be made of the aesthetic harmony seen in the warm, orange-brown oil varnish and its fine crackling against the background of very beautiful tone woods with a distinctive grain. The violin's sweet sound is bright and warm but clear and full of substance. Its label is original and features the initials B. M.. This rare violin was worked over in our workshop and is offered ready to play. Delivered free of shipping costs, with a 30-day return policy and Corilon's trade-in guarantee.
