Its timbre is bold and supple across registers making it a lovely instrument for solos and group playing. The strong medium curl figure rises from the center joint of the two-piece maple back. Similar flames run along the ribs and scroll. Its f-holes emulate those of Guarneri’s instruments. The varnish is auburn over a wheat ground, which shows through with lively shading. This violin is thoughtfully antiqued by its maker and is in excellent condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eInterior label reads: “Lorenzo Locatelli \/ fece in Cremona nell'anno 2005” and bears the luthier's signature\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eLength: 357 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eUpper Bouts: 164 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eMiddle: 110 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eLower Bouts: 207 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Maker\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLorenzo Locatelli\u003c\/b\u003e (1975- ) is a contemporary master luthier who was born in Cremona. He attended the Scuola di Liuteria di Cremona, studying under Massimo Negroni, Stefano Conia, and Giorgio Scolari, finishing his degree in 1995. After graduating, Locatelli focused on expanding his knowledge to include plucked stringed instruments including harp and guitar, as well as organs. Locatelli is a meticulous craftsman deeply entrenched in the rich Cremonese tradition of instrument making. The expression of his depth of knowledge is asserted in the details of his instruments and quality of his wood selection. Locatelli frequently models his instruments on Cremonese masters. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0908\/1149\/8769\/files\/Metzler-Violins-Lorenzo-Locatelli-VNW113-1-Back.jpg?v=1757206702\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0908\/1149\/8769\/files\/Metzler-Violins-Lorenzo-Locatelli-VNW113-1-Neck.jpg?v=1757206702\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Italian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41288143700032,"sku":"VN-W113-1","price":16500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/6342\/4320\/files\/Metzler-Violins-Lorenzo-Locatelli-VNW113-1-Front.jpg?v=1782693626","url":"https:\/\/wearvico.com\/products\/lorenzo-locatelli-violin-cremona-2005","provider":"wearvico","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
