Baroque Violin by Mark Jennings 2021

A very beautiful baroque violin, made by violin maker Mark Jennings. It is exquisitely crafted by the maker and is a real beauty to look at. The sound is remarkably balanced throughout all registers. It is resonant and deep from the lowest notes on the G string all the way up the E string and in addition, is very easy to play.

Violin by Mark Jennings, 2023

This is our first non-baroque violin by Mark Jennings, an esteemed maker here in the UK. We are very pleased to be working with him and presenting one of his latest instruments for sale. In terms of sound, from the very first note, a deep resonance emanates from the instrument. It has many very fine qualities that players look for in their violin: it has a bright and projecting tone but with a richness an warmth that sets it apart.
