Choice of material
The choice of wood is one of the most crucial aspects in the construction of a violin, as the quality, type and characteristics of the material profoundly influence the sound, resonance and aesthetics of the instrument. Experienced violin maker like Marcelo Cavanna devote a lot of attention and care to the selection of woods, seeking those that not only meet high standards of visual beauty, but which are also capable of producing the best sonic qualities.
Construction and processing
The construction and crafting of a violin are processes that require skill, patience and a deep respect for tradition. Each stage of creating a violin is crucial in determining the quality of sound, aesthetic beauty and response of the instrument.
Painting and finishing
Painting is not just an aesthetic issue; it also affects the sound. The composition of the varnish and the method of application are well-kept secrets of every luthier. The varnish must protect the wood without stifling its ability to vibrate.

“Among the ancient streets of Cremona, the echo of the strings intoned by expert hands merges with the whisper of the wood, narrating the perpetual symphony of an art which, in the heart of the city, beats in unison with time itself: here , where each violin is a breath of the infinite, lutherie ascends to poetry, shaping the eternal from the transitory.”
