Giovanni Battista Rogeri was a violin and cello maker who worked in Brescia (Brixia) during the late 17th century. According to instrument labels, he identified himself as a student (alumnus) of Nicolai Amati of Cremona [1][2][3]. Rogeri produced both violins and cellos; documented examples include instruments dated 1690, 1696, and 1699 [1][2][3].
