Lorenzo Mansi is one of the most interesting Italian violin makers of our time. Trained at the Civica Scuola di Liuteria del Comune di Milano and the Conservatorio Guido Cantelli di Novara, he combines craftsmanship honed in the modern Milanese violin-making tradition with a highly developed musical talent. His instruments are characterized by a refined sense of style, marked by a recognizable delight in the individual details of high-quality tonewoods and meticulous varnishing—qualities that harmoniously combine to create distinctive tonal personalities. His perfectly executed orange-brown oil varnish brings out the beauty of the one-piece maple back of the violin offered here, which was cut from the bark, and emphasizes the beautiful grain of this rare wood. Details such as the finely crafted edge inlay reveal the high artistic standards and exceptional craftsmanship that are evident in this expressive Lorenzo Mansi violin. Slight playing marks indicate that this Italian violin is not only a beautiful instrument for discerning musicians, but also one that will be appreciated for its mature sound, which is characterized by a warm and clear character.
