Francesco Goffriller

Francesco Goffriller (also Francesco Gofriller) (1692–1750) was an Italian violin, viola and cello maker thought to have been active between 1709 and 1739. Although long thought to be the brother of the Venetian luthier Matteo Goffriller, he is now known to have been his son.[1] He worked as a luthier in Venice from approximately 1709 until 1714 when he moved to Udine.
