Violin 3D Model: Back Plate, Messiah 1716 Antonio Stradivari

Messiah Stradivari Back Plate – 3D Model (STL / STEP / IGES)

A high-precision 3D model of the back plate from the 1716 “Messiah” Stradivari violin — one of the best-preserved examples of Cremonese violin making, now faithfully captured in digital form for luthiers, researchers, and CNC/CAD professionals.

Carefully developed from accurate references, this model preserves the character of the original while offering a clean and optimized geometry suited for CNC carving, digital design, and educational use.
