Canzona Lombardy Violin
Refined Advanced Student Instrument – Masterfully Set Up by Atelier
The Canzona Lombardy Violin is crafted for players who value refinement, balance, and a traditional tonal aesthetic. Inspired by classic Cremonese design, the Lombardy offers a focused, elegant sound paired with understated visual sophistication—making it an ideal choice for serious study and continued musical development.
Fully hand-carved from highly figured Grade AA tonewoods, the Lombardy features a seasoned Russian spruce top and flamed curly maple back that have been air-dried for 4–5 years. These carefully selected woods contribute to a responsive, nuanced voice with clarity, warmth, and excellent projection across all registers.
The violin is finished in a professional-quality hand-applied spirit and oil mixed varnish, shaded with a blended color pattern and no antiquing, allowing the natural beauty of the wood to take center stage. The finish supports resonance while delivering a clean, classical appearance.
Outfitted with ebony pegs, an ebony Guarneri-style chinrest, and a tailpiece fitted with a single Wittner fine tuner, the Lombardy is optimized for balance, comfort, and tonal efficiency. A precisely fit Aubert #7 bridge ensures clear articulation and effective energy transfer.
Each Lombardy violin is standardly strung with Thomastik Dominant strings, trusted worldwide for their warmth, flexibility, and expressive range.
Before leaving the shop, every instrument is fully adjusted by our talented Atelier luthiers, including bridge refinement, soundpost adjustment, string optimization, and final play-testing. No factory shortcuts—only careful, experienced setup.
Violin only. Case and bow are sold separately, so you can choose the bow and case that suit your playing. Add them in one step from the options under the price.

Professionally Set Up by Atelier
This violin is individually inspected, adjusted and play-tested by Atelier for Fine Stringed Instruments before shipment. In our Norwalk and Greenwich, CT workshops, our luthiers check and adjust the bridge, nut and string height, pegs, soundpost, fingerboard and fittings, then tune and play-test the instrument, so it arrives ready for lessons rather than for a repair shop. Read what a full luthier setup involves on our page about violins professionally set up by our luthiers.
