PDT-Violin-07 - Violin Identification - General Guidelines

Course Description

Important Announcement: 2022 UNH Violin Craftmanship Institute will be held online.

The intent of this workshop is to teach the young and less experienced violin makers about the basis of what will be their stock-in-trade in the violin world – the 200-plus years of manufacture by the various commercial schools, which make up the overwhelming majority of violins in existence; how to distinguish them from one another; how to judge age and quality, and how to tell values – so that they can make sensible and informed judgements on how to handle them in future commerce.

A list of the tools and materials required for this course can be found in the Tools & Materials tab above, or by clicking here.
