Hi, I’m Sofia 🎻 — a third-generation violin maker raised in Florence, Italy. I create for almost 30 years violins, violas, and cellos with love, tradition, and a deep connection to my family’s legacy. Here, I share my passion for luthiery, behind-the-scenes moments in the workshop. Whether you’re a maker, musician, or simply curious, I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s bring more Art and Beauty around the World. 🎶 Follow me on my social media accounts: 👇 Catch me on my Masterclass Training: go.sofiavettori.com//free-masterclass-training Facebook: www.facebook.com/sofia.vettori Instagram: www.instagram.com/sofiavettori/ Website: www.sofiavettori.com/ Disclosure: Some of the links shared in my videos and descriptions are affiliate links, including from the eBay Partner Network.
