Mario Bedocchi
Reggio Emilia, 1935

We are always pleased to see a violin by Mario Bedocchi come through our workshop. Bedocchi was a self-taught maker from Reggio Emilia, a city between Parma and Modena. He had a rather healthy output of instruments, over two hundred, and won numerous awards across Italy for his work.

Bedocchi’s instruments are especially appreciated for their excellent sound and their clean, distinctive workmanship. We’ve sold quite a few instruments by Bedocchi over the years, and we are currently offering a fine example from 1935. Built on a graceful personal model in the local tradition, this violin is in near-mint condition.

Dear Friends,

We are very pleased to announce the partial re-opening of our Boston location on June 8th, 2020. We will be here to help you by email and phone. We will offer “curbside” pickup and delivery on our 8th floor landing for instruments, bows, and accessories. We are also pleased to serve you by Fedex or UPS. Customers are not allowed inside our store at this time.

We are available to help with appraisals, certificates of authenticity, instrument and bow purchase, instrument or bow consignment, or for consultation. We will resume repairs and rehairs of customer instruments and bows at a later date.

Until then you may still reach us by email at info@reuning.com or by leaving a voicemail at 617-262-1300.

We hope that you are safe and well and send you our very best wishes for future music making.
