Notes:
The Amati influence was still proving popular, as can be seen in the viola made by George in 1812 (73266) and instruments sold by A. and J. Betts into the 1850s. This Amatise cello has the same body length and similar proportions to the two earlier cellos made by Vincenzo. The scroll has the extra turn into the eye not seen on the Stradivari-pattern instruments made by the family and the back of the pegbox retains the detailing and rounded corners often seen on English cellos during the first quarter of the 19th century. It proved impossible to obtain a clear dendrochronological result.Panormo – the life and work of Vincenzo and his sons.
