There are French made violins that are bigger than what most would consider to be “standard” dimensioned violins. Many are built by the JTL Company and they might do the trick for your students. That said, those violins will have a whole list of other issues to consider before buying one: They will sound different, may have intonation challenges if you are used to a typical length neck/body/bridge equation, etc.. Some fiddlers love those big violins, but it is an acquired taste and important to buy from a good shop that can make sure the instrument is set up properly. A proper setup is essential. Good luck!
