Aubert Lutherie Vuillaume Model Viola

Aubert Lutherie Vuillaume Model Viola

The Aubert Lutherie Vuillaume Model Viola embodies the beauty, power, and refinement of fine handmade French viola craftsmanship. Inspired by the rich history of French lutherie and the legacy of Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume (1798–1875), the model draws on the Mirecourt tradition that helped shape generations of French instrument makers.

The viola features a medium red-golden traditional French spirit varnish, polished to a high luster to reveal the exceptional character of its highly selected maple and spruce. Its rich, expressive voice offers a broad palette of tonal colors, with an even and balanced response across all registers. As the dynamics expand, the instrument reveals greater tonal complexity while maintaining clarity, stability, and control.

Powerful projection and effortless playability reflect the quality of its construction, making the Vuillaume Model an excellent choice for musicians seeking a refined viola for demanding performance.

Each instrument is maker-adjusted and fitted with fine ebony fittings, a beautifully cut and precisely fitted Aubert Deluxe bridge, and Corelli Alliance Vivace strings. Every viola also includes a Maker’s Certificate.
