Lorenzo Carcassi was a 1700s Florentine instrument maker.[1] He often worked with his younger sibling and business partner, Tomaso Carcassi.[2][3]

He and Tomaso were probably students of Giovanni Baptista Gabrielli, another Florentine instrument maker.[4] His instruments are played to this day by artists including Gwendolyn Masin (a violin from 1761) and Vito Paternoster (a violoncello from 1792).[5]
