Voller Brothers, London 1898
About the instrument:
William (1854-1933), Alfred (1856-1918) and Charles (1865-1949) Voller are amongst the finest copyists in the history of violin making. The range of their copies goes from violins in the general style of to what they termed on their labels an ‘exact copy’; some of these have an almost preternatural ability to conjure the original both in their making and in their brilliantly executed varnish composition and wear.
Voller Brothers 1898, modelled after Stradivari with light antiquing from the makers. Made during the latter part of their association with Hart & Son. ‘I think the lower back right corner is exceptionally well conceived and is very close to the master (Stradivari) himself’ – Tim Toft.
