Based in Transylvania, Romania, Demeter Violins has over fifty years of experience making outstanding instruments.  Christian Petru Demeter is a second generation violin maker melding modern technology with traditional hand-making to produce accessible quality instruments.

The workshop favors the Demeter personal touch based on the  Guarnari model for their workshop instruments.

This violin has a wide-grain spruce belly and two-piece back enhanced by a dark orange over brown varnish and subtle antiquing.  With its strong projection on the upper strings, balanced timbre, a crisp, lively response, and a ringing tone quality, the Demeter violin would be perfect choice for an intermediate violinist desiring a bold, confident sound.
