Biographies
John Dilworth
CARCASSI, Lorenzo & Tomaso Worked circa. 1750-1780 Florence Italy. Pupils of Giovanni Baptista Gabrielli, the brothers Carcassi worked both together and individually to varying standards of finish and accuracy, generally to a high-arched Stainer model which prevailed in Florence at that time. Often crudely cut but distinctive scroll with large eye and slender chamfers. Varnish is generally of a clear thin yellow colour; sometimes richer gold-brown. The range of quality can be quite unnerving; some quite coarse looking work can be perfectly authentic, while others conform to more classical notions of craftsmanship and depth of varnish.
