MUSAFIA ITALIA S.r.l. (Ltd) VIOLIN AND VIOLA CASES

The first-ever Musafia case, the Musafia Luxury Model is a professional case made to the highest standards in our Cremona workshop, subjected to continual refinement since it was introduced in 1983. It's style, still considered a benchmark today, to the extent that it is the most copied by other manufacturers.

In addition to the requisite four bow holders, string tube, suspension system, etc. as featured standard in the Superleggero and Ultraleggero Series models, it also has finest silk velvet linings, quilted padding, and brass metal fixtures including long-lasting piano-style accessory box lid hinges. Waterproof case cover made of Cordura® nylon (now with Teflon® treatment against scuffing) with music pocket is standard.

The rectangular Luxury Ultralight cases are similar in design and concept, but are smaller and made to be as light as possible. The interior is lined in finest silk velvet and satin. The new model is made of 6-ply laminate built with the Continuum High Tensile method. Structure is designed to support a load of 130kg. (285 lbs.) weight on the lid!
