This Stradivari model is originally decorated. As you might know Antonio Stradivari learned to be an "intarsiatore", which stands for craftsman who decorates wooden made items, mainly furniture.
Very likely Amati, who was working close by in the same street, brought his violins to be decorated to the workshop where Stradivari worked. Slowly Stradivari started to make his own violins. And after he turned over 40 years he opened his own workshop. The decorated instruments of Stradivari are very often carved and filled with black ebony sawdust; the ribs of the cellos are painted. Along the purfling he inserted between the two lines small ivory pieces.
This specific model used here on the "Hellier" is a quit large and big model with a great volume. That's why Master Edgar Russ loves to use this model also as a non decorated instrument.
This violin will have the fitting used on the original decorated Stradivari, but no decoration in order to increase the sound quality to its maximum.
Edgar Russ loves this challenge to make a copy of one of the most famous great Masters. You will be surprised of the very high quality.
