Article of Cremona Maestro Special Edition Hellier Model Violin Outfit Full Size
At the top of Cremona's Maestro Series is a re-creation of the legendary "Hellier" Strad. The "Hellier" is the most famous of Antonio Stradivari's inlaid violins. Originally purchased by Sir Samuel Hellier in the early 18th century directly from the Master, the instrument eventually passed to Mr. H.E. Morriss, a Shanghai newspaper publisher. Fortunately, Mr. Morriss took the Hellier with him to England before World War II; after World War II, Morriss saw all of his Shanghai possessions confiscated by the revolutionary functionaries of Mao Zedong and put on display as "plunder". The original "Hellier" is presently in the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C.| ♦ Good Product ♦ ♦ Good Price ♦ ♦ Don't Be Hesitate To Get It ! ♦ |
