Marco Dobresovitch was born in Montenegro in 1891. He studied violin making with Pollastri in the 1920's and returned to Alexandria finally setting up shop in Cairo in 1941. Modeling very Stradivairian inexecution, he was not a fan of any new-fangled ideas or experimentations. The arching is flawless as is the wood selection. This cello features a one Piece back which is exceedingly rare. Beautifully clear varnish leaving the texture and grain of the wood very accessible. Instruments highly praised by many great artists. Marco Dobresovitch presented King Farouk of Egypt with a quartet. A Professional Cello by anyones standard suited for Solowork. The tone is penetrating with incredible projection and clarity.
The condition is excellent and is free of any major damage or repairs, professionally played and owned.
Made in Alexandria Egypt in 1930.
Comes with Certificate of Authenticity from Reuning & Son Violins.
Description from Reuning & Son, "The back is from one piece of slab cut maple with horizontal broad flames. The sides are from quarter cut maple with medium flames.

First Violin Purchase
Purchasing a new violin (or any quality string instrument) is an important investment that can be exciting yet pricey and challenging. In my case, I was a bit nervous because this was my first such purchase. From my several phone calls to today's visit to Violin Shop Tampa, I felt like everyone was dedicated to my needs and happiness. They listened attentively and worked hard to help me in every way. I learned that each team member is formally educated and quite experienced, including a number of professional, working musicians. I was in excellent hands.

Help and Care
We were very pleased with both the help and care taken with selecting a new instrument and the selection of instruments available. Mikel took time with us and made sure everything was just right! Thank you for a wonderful experience. We look forward to coming back when it’s time for the next size up!
First Impressions
We stopped here to see about getting an upgraded violin for my son going into HS orchestra. First impressions are valuable and we were impressed! The shop itself is like a European violin shop - it has that small, warm, well kept old world vibe. It belongs on a small, off the main path cobbled street with a coffee shop next door. It even has its own workshop for working on instruments.
