Was working in Naples in 1738. In a violin fairly well made with very dark varnish was the label: ” Giuseppe Morello Odani in Napoli, 1738.”

Andere nennen ihn kurzweg Giuseppe Morelli; wenn Vidal seinen Zettel
richtig gelesen hat, dann hiess er jedoch G. M. Odani. Seine Arbeit ist gut, sein Lack rothbraun, manchmal fast schwarz.
