The art of the Purfling

Crafting the purflings onto the violin represents a pinnacle of delicacy in the construction process. These intricate inlays not only frame and elevate the instrument but also serve as the distinctive autograph of the violin maker, adding a unique touch to each creation.

The violin showcased in this video draws inspiration from the masterful works of Maestro Gaetano Sgarabotto, an esteemed Italian violin maker of the early 20th century. Maestro Sgarabotto's legacy extends to the founding of the Violin Making School of Parma in 1928, influencing generations of craftsmen.
