A prepreg carbon fiber of higher quality and strength than standard carbon fiber. Negri Cases uses it for the Vulcano line; the Eternity line uses pure carbon fiber.
Eternity is pure carbon fiber, lighter (1.5–1.7 kg for violin) and from €750. Vulcano is aerospace grade carbon fiber with automotive finishes, a leather handle and a velour interior, from €1,100.
A triangular case follows the shape of the violin: it is more compact and lighter and usually holds two bows. An oblong (rectangular) case has more room inside: usually four bow holders, a larger accessory pocket and often a music compartment.
