Adjustable to fit violas between 15" 1/4 - 16" 1/2
The Negri Venezia viola case is a beautifully designed case featuring a micro suede interior. This case is ideal for violists who love the traditional look of viola cases with great protection. It's exterior wooden shell is layered with water-repellent protection. On top of that is a Cordura canvas cover with accent trim. This case includes high quality German locks, one large interior accessory pocket with brass pull, carrying straps so that it can be worn like a backpack, hygrometer, subway end strap, suspension protection system, string tube, and four bow holders.
Negri has been offering the best protection for the world's most valuable violins, such as Stradivarius and Guarneri, for the past 30 years. It is the preferred case among virtuosos like Lord Yehudi Menhuin, Ruggiero Ricci, Akiko Suwanai, Vadim Repin, Linus Roth and the great Maxim Vengerov; just to name a few. Negri cases offer study protection with impeccable attention to quality. Furthermore, each case is beautifully designed. You definitely know a Negri case when you see it.
Thank you Robbie for all of your help in my recent of a viola case for my daughter. We really appreciate your prompt service and communication during the entire process.
Looking forward to doing business with you again!
I love my new Venezia case! I particularly appreciate the lack of velcro, which always seems to stick to bow hair and clothing. My 16" viola fits snugly, using just the larger of the two pads provided. And the neck gets tied down securely with a pair of leather straps (not velcro). There's an area for my shoulder rest, held down with a snap-strap. And the right-hand storage compartment has room for rosin, a wiping cloth, some mutes, and even my music-reading glasses. The case is made of wood, but lightweight. And the outside rain flaps are held in place with little magnets, rather than velcro. Since I don't usually use the zipper-pocket in the lid for music, I put a sheet of foam (1" x 10" x 31") in it for some added protection.
