Violin, ca. 1760 from the Artemio Maestro Versari collection

Don Nicolò Amati[1] (born Nicolò Marchioni or Nicolò Melchioni;[2] 1662–1752) was an Italian violin maker based in Bologna. In 1687 he entered priesthood. He pursued both careers, priesthood and violinmaking, throughout his lifetime.[3]

It is assumed that he took the surname "Amati" as a homage to one of the Amatis, the most famous violin-maker family of the time in Bologna, but he was not himself a member.[3]

His violins are considered of varying quality in workmanship, although they are noted for their high-quality varnish.[4]

His workshop was located in the Santi Cosma e Damiano district.
