Gaetano Pareschi (1900-1987)
According to Eric Blot, this is a copy of violins by award-winning Italian luthier Gaetano Pareschi, whose working life spanned 50 years, from 1924 to 1974. A practitioner of the Ferrarese violinmaking style, he favoured a half-external form, wide purfling and deep-cut grooves encircling the scroll. Once an orchestral musician, Pareschi's appreciation for orchestral string instruments was realised in producing approximately 200 violins, 20 violas and cellos, and three double bases. The instruments dating from the 1930s-1960s are especially valued for their high craftsmanship. Please call us at 07 3876 3877 for more information or pop into our store to take it for a test drive!
