REVIEW VIDEOS
This exquisite violin, by the respected Florentian maker, Paolo Vettori, represents a lifetime of passionate focus on the art of the luthier. The tone is warm, rich and burnished, an ideal partner for chamber music, with fine balance for versatility across the repertoire.
This violin is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from the maker. Especially notable is the superb spruce employed in Vettori’s works, which originates from the Apennines, and was felled in 1772. The age and provenance of the wood is guaranteed and certified by Tuscia University.

Paolo Vettori
Paolo Vettori has lived his entire life in and near the Tuscan city of Florence, Italy, the heart and soul of Italian art and culture, and birthplace of the Renaissance. Receiving his early training from his father, Dario Vettori, Paolo started working in his father’s workshop at a very young age. He was fortunate to interact with many great makers in the region, who greatly supplemented his training, among them Sderci, Casini and Stefanini, who provided a direct line of inspiration to Paolo from Bisiach. From these masters, Paolo acquired not just new knowledge of techniques, but their approach to making, varnishing, and in some cases, even their tools and molds. Applying these resources, Paolo Vettori has created over 300 instruments, and remains today the head of his family’s workshop. He has since been joined by his children, who have become notable and respected luthiers, carrying out the Vettori family tradition into the third generation: Dario II, Sofia and Lapo, each of whom label their works individually.
