Notes:
This cello bears a copy of the label found inside cello 73273 and appears to be from the same model, with an identical body length. However, the front, particularly in the sound-holes, bears a striking resemblance to the instruments of the Dublin maker Thomas Perry, for whom Vincenzo is supposed to have worked some time after leaving Paris, while the elegant scroll displays the small extra turn into the eye often paired with his more Amatise violin and viola models. Spruce for the blocks and linings seems to have been abandoned by now and willow is used, although the C-bout linings are still not morticed into the corner blocks. There are no conclusive dendrochronology results.Panormo – the life and work of Vincenzo and his sons.
