Otello Bignami

Violin Maker  1914-1989
BolognaItaly

Otello Bignami was initially self-taught before becoming a student of Gaetano Pollastri around 1952. In addition to his independent work as a violin maker, he founded a violin making school in Bologna in 1979, where he taught until 1983. Bignami relied some on classical models, but also developed his own Pollastri-inspired model. Stylistically his work represents the Bolognese school well, and his varnish is usually alcohol-based and of a red- or yellow-orange color. Bignami's labels varied throughout the different periods of his career, and after 1978 he often used a monogram of his initials that was branded to the endpin and inlaid on the button.
