Violin Case Care: Keeping the Case (and the Violin) Safe

Violin cases last for years with simple care. Small habits protect both case and instrument.

Weekly

  • Wipe exterior with a dry cloth.
  • Check latches and hinges.
  • Vacuum or brush the interior.

Seasonal

  • Keep a humidifier inside for dry climates.
  • Avoid leaving the case in a hot car.
  • Check bow holders and straps.

When traveling

  • Loosen the bow.
  • Remove rosin dust before closing.
  • Never stack heavy items on the case.

We design cases for long service life. See violin cases.
