This viola, handcrafted by María Machado in Cremona, seamlessly blends traditional Italian violin-making materials and techniques to achieve a perfect balance of comfort and rich sonority. The top, made from European spruce, ensures precise and resonant tonal response, while the back and sides, crafted from flamed maple, provide depth and powerful projection.

Every detail is meticulously designed, from the ebony fingerboard to the boxwood fittings, ensuring both durability and reliability. The hand-applied finish, using varnish made from natural resins and linseed oil, not only protects the wood but also enhances its resonance, delivering a vibrant, warm tone. The antiqued patina further adds a distinctive visual charm, setting this model apart.

This design can also serve as a starting point for a custom instrument. Contact María to create a viola tailored to your unique specifications and needs.
