Violin Santo Serafino - back

This handmade violin is made of bird-eyes maple and spruce wood from Val di Fiemme. Michele Dobner built it like the one made in 1740 by Santo Serafino, Venetian master of the 18th century. The distinctive pattern of the bird-eyes maple, one of the rarest kind of wood in the world, is particularly visible on the back of the instrument.
