Frequently Asked Questions

The reduced weight allows the top to vibrate more freely, resulting in a slightly warmer and more resonant tone – it’s less ‘bright’ than some mass-produced violins.
The ebony is of a decent standard for this price range; it’s not the highest grade but provides good durability and tonal response, and is a definite upgrade over cheaper alternatives.
The antique finish involves a slightly thinner layer of lacquer, which allows the wood to vibrate more freely, contributing subtly to the overall resonance and warmth of the sound.
