Pure carbon fiber

Light, sleek, protective

A triangular violin case in pure carbon fiber, designed to be light, sleek and protective.

Pure carbon fiberA light, rigid shell that protects the instrument.

Combination locksA secure closure for every journey.

Backpack strapsHands-free transport, plus a comfortable handle.

Fixing cushionsHold the instrument perfectly in place.

Three-point suspension system

The instrument never touches the shell.

A fine instrument is most vulnerable where it is most beautiful: its arched back and its delicate edges. That is why, inside this case, your violin does not lie on the bottom. It is held on three padded points of support and suspended above the shell, so its most fragile surfaces never touch it.

Swipe to explore

1Neck heel support
A padded cradle beneath the heel of the neck, one of the strongest points of the instrument, carries its weight.
2Lower bout support
A second support holds the lower edge of the body, keeping the back level and clear of the shell.
3End support
A third padded block holds the end of the instrument, so it cannot slide forward or backward in transit.

For an instrument of great value, the case is not an accessory. It is its first line of protection.

Protection

When the case is knocked or dropped, the impact reaches the shell first and is absorbed before it can travel to the instrument. Nothing presses against the back, the top or the edges.

Safety

Your violin is held firmly in one precise position. It cannot shift, rotate or strike the lid, whether the case is carried by hand, on your back or in the cabin of an aircraft.

Reliability

Supports placed where the instrument is strongest and softly padded, for the same protection on every journey, year after year.

Who is it for?

For violinists who carry their instrument every day or travel often and want the lowest possible weight in a rigid case.

How it protects the instrument

The violin rests on three padded supports (the neck heel, the lower bout and the end of the body) and is held above the shell, so its back, top and edges never touch it. If the case is knocked or dropped, the shell takes the impact before it can reach the instrument, and the violin cannot shift or strike the lid.

How it compares

The Eternity Oblong (same price, 1.7 kg) holds four bows and has a detachable music compartment.
The Vulcano Triangular ($1,300, 1.7 kg) uses aerospace grade carbon fiber with automotive finishes and a leather handle.

Will my violin fit?

The case is made for full-size 4/4 violins and follows the measurements of Stradivari models. The suspension can be moved to adjust it to the length of your violin. If your instrument has unusual dimensions, send the measurements to info@negricases.com and we will confirm the fit before you buy.

How do I clean the case?

Wipe the shell with a cloth, water and a little soap; never use solvents. Clean the interior with a soft brush or compressed air.

Can I return it?
