Features:

A Fusion of “Pollastri”’s Tradition and the Global Standard, Created in Egypt by Dobretsovitch
Born in Montenegro, Marco Dobretsovitch (1891-c.1960) trained under the modern Italian master Augusto Pollastri and obtained sophisticated production techniques, after which he moved his production base to Egypt. Despite being produced in Egypt, Dobretsovitch’s works received a wide recognition amongst experts as being a part of the ‘modern Italian school’.
Produced in 1936, this violin clearly displays its modern Bolognese technical influence with its varnishing and craftsmanship, while it also shows a classical ‘Stradivarius’ trait, which is a diversion from Pollastri’s tradition.
Its balanced proportion produces a bright and rich sound, and it is no wonder it has gained a reputation among knowledgeable professional musicians as a ‘reliable’ violin.
