Additional Information
Wood
We exclusively use a selection of high-quality tonewoods when crafting our instruments. The maple wood is most commonly of Balkan origin, but we also use locally sourced Italian maple, known as Oppio, which has a higher density and a distinctive greyish hue that lends itself well to antique-style varnishes. Our spruce wood for the soundboard comes from Val di Fiemme, where a unique microclimate fosters a regular growth pattern, making it renowned worldwide for its use in instrument making..

About G.Ornati
Giuseppe Ornati was born in 1887. He was initially trained as a carpenter but later shifted his interest to violin making studying under the guidance of Carlo Moneta amongst others. In 1903 he thus began working in the workshop of famed dealer Leandro Bisiach working alongside Gaetano Sgarabotto. Here he developed his personal style characterized by precision and a skilled craftsmanship as well as a softness in the nishing details.Personalize
